- Why
am I walking? Read my fundraising letter and learn about my
family's fight against breast cancer.
- Want
me to walk in honor of someone? Fill out this form and I will
add her name to my 3 day T-shirt I will be wearing on my walk.
- The net proceeds from the
event will support non-profit breast health programs in every region
of the country, and cutting-edge medical research on women's diseases
at leading academic institutions.
- A key part of my participation
in this event is that I've agreed to raise at least $1800 in
pledges before the event. In order to meet that goal, I will need your
help. Please keep in mind how far I will be walking– and how hard I
will be training for the Avon Breast Cancer 3-day between now and May.
- One out of every nine women
in the United States will develop breast cancer in her life time. Breast
Cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death for all women, and
the leading cause of death in women between the ages of 40 and 55. Both
its cause and the means to a cure remain a mystery, although the disease
can be successfully treated if caught early. Currently, one million
women in the United States have the disease, but don't know it. Many
will not know about their potentially fatal illness for another five
to eight years.
Thank
you so much for your support and generosity
