Greetings
to my dearest friends and family…
As
many of you remember back in 2002 I participated in the Avon Breast Cancer Walk.
It was a three day-60 mile life-changing journey.
I
have wanted to do this again for many years, but because of my chronic health
condition I have at times been unable to walk around the block let alone 1 mile
or 60!
But, PRAISE GOD….He has brought restoration to
my body and I now feel like I can do it!!!
I
have signed up for the 2 day – 39 mile walk in San Francisco in September 2013.
I am so excited to help bring awareness to
this dreaded disease that has struck close to home far too many times.
I
am making a plea to you for your help in reaching my requirement of raising
$1800.
I
have a couple of fundraisers in the works…..
The
first one is a QUILT RAFFLE.
My dear friend Mary Bowen created a gorgeous
pink quilt for me to raffle off.
For every $5 in donations I receive I will put
your name into the raffle.
The
other endeavor is a YARD SALE on Saturday May 4th at my house.
I would appreciate any donations for this,
which I hope to be my biggest boost in raising funds. During that yard sale I will take the last
donations for the Quilt raffle and then at noon we will draw the winners name.
When
I did the walk in 2002 I was able to
raise MORE than I was required to and it was because of all of you who gave so
generously. I am depending on that same love and support this time around. I
could not have done it without you then and I cannot do it without you now!
Thank
you for believing in me!!!

I am not certain
why but this is no longer a direct link (so when you go there just select
participant and then type in my name and it will take you to my page)
