My friend Glenda is going to do a 60 kilometer sponsored walk to raise funds for breast cancer research. She’ll be walking September 10-12, 2004 which is the Weekend to End Breast Cancer.
The net proceeds will support breast cancer research, education, and services through Princess Margaret Hospital. She’s trying to raise $2500, and I thought I would try to help her out by appealing to the kindness of Live Journallers.
She’s got an excellent website to mark her fundraising progress and allow for online credit card donations. I donated yesterday morning while at work, it took less than 3 minutes, and has provided me with hours of fun watching my name scroll by on the little list of donors.
Give to Support Breast Cancer Research!
Every donation helps, no matter how large or small! Give Glenda five bucks just for being a hottie, or twenty dollars because this year over 5,000 Canadian women will die of breast cancer, or give yourself the double gift of a tax writeoff and warm fuzzies and donate a serious amount of bling.
In the words of Wilford Brimley, “it’s the right thing to do”.
Ooooooh, you remind me I need to start getting donations for the Mother’s Day Breast Cancer walk I’m doing. I’m not quite ready for the 3 day.
