Dear Friends and Family,
I have taken on the challenge, along with
my team, Tribe Iron, of walking 60 miles over the course
of three days, camping out at night with thousands of
others for an event called the Breast Cancer 3-Day,
which benefits Susan G. Komen for the Cure and
the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund.
Every advancement in breast cancer research, treatment,
education and prevention in the last 25 years has been
touched by a Komen for the Cure grant.
My team is raising money by bake sale, silent
auction, fundraising dinners, garage sales and door to
door walks over many miles. I plan on raising $2200.00
to help my team reach our donation goal of $15000.00.
Please consider making a donation of ANY amount - nothing
too large or too small. If you can't give all at once,
you can spread it out over four months, using the payment
plan option, if you donate online at http://www.the3day.org/.
I have been blessed thus far, with great
health but I lost my best friend who was only 45 to this
disease and several of my other friends have been fighting
for their lives. One of my teammates has recently won
the battle with breast cancer thus far and will be walking
beside me.
Without a cure, one in eight women in the
U.S. will continue to be diagnosed with breast cancer.
That's why I'm walking in the 3-Day. Because everyone
deserves a lifetime.
To make a donation, go to http://www.the3day.org/.
Click on Donate Now and search for my personal fundraising
page. If you don't want to donate online, please fill
out the enclosed donation form and mail it to the address
on the form. Or you can call 800.996.3DAY to donate over
the phone. I would like to reach my fundraising goal by
mid September, so don't delay!
Thank you for taking the time to read this
letter, and thank you for your support.
