Thank you for visiting my web page.
This is my second year of participating in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. Last year with your generous support I was able to raise $1945.00. The tremendous encouragement that I got from you all last year has inspired me to do this walk again.
I am very excited to do this walk. I have lost some of my near and dear family to this deadly disease. Seeing them fight against Cancer has inspired me to do whatever I can to help. Two days and 39 miles seems nothing compared to what people go through to fight this disease.
I am doing this walk for myself, my 6 year old daughter and all the fabulous women who have come into my life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
It is a big commitment, one that will require me to spend the next several months training and fundraising.
Thank you for all those who have supported me in my challenge. I hope that some day Cancer would be treated just like a cold or a flu.
Also, dont forget to save your
credit card receipts or cancelled checks for 2009 tax credit. Online donors will receive an e-mail confirming their gift and will also be directed to a printable confirmation page when their donation is complete. As required by the IRS, anyone making a single donation of $250 or more will receive a hard-copy receipt directly from the Avon Foundation. For more information please complete the request form by visiting the following link: http://info.avonfoundation.org/site/Survey?SURVEY_ID=2800&ACTION_REQUIRED=URI_ACTION_USER_REQUESTS.
The money I raise will be managed and disbursed by the Avon Foundation Breast Cancer Crusade to help provide access to care for those that most need it, fund educational programs, and accelerate research into new treatments and potential cures. I’ll be just one of thousands of people that will walk up to a marathon and a half over a weekend, raising awareness of the cause and educating even more people. I can’t do it without your help. Though I’m required to raise at least $1,800 in donation, I plan to raise much more!
