Santa Barbara 2010: I am walking 39.3 miles to fight Breast Cancer!!!
Thanks for visiting my Avon Walk page. I’ve committed to participating in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in Santa Barbara Sept. 11th & 12th, 2010.
UPDATE June 16, 2010:
The Bowling Fundraiser was a success! Thank you for all that attended.
Breast Cancer has touched all of our lives in one way or another. My husbands Aunt Maggie and my Aunt Helen lost their fight I am walking in their honor.
It’s a big commitment, one that will require me to spend the next several months training and fund-raising. But breast cancer is a big disease, one that still affects far too many people, and I’m determined to do everything I can to help put an end to it. 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! I hope that I can count on your support.
You can make a donation to my fund-raising campaign right here on the website by clicking on the pink "Donate Now" button. If you prefer to write a check, just contact me and I'll send you the information and form.
As I prepare for this exciting event, I plan to update this page frequently so that all my supporters can follow my progress, so please visit often. While you're here, you might want to spend some time on the site to find out more information on why this event is so important, and the organizations and people that will be helped by the money we all raise.
Thank you for helping me fight Breast Cancer.
