Support Callie's effort in 2012 Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk

Hi Everyone!
 
As many of you know the month of October is Breast Cancer Awareness month.  I’m sure this hits home for many of you, as it does for me.  I’ve recently joined a team that will participating in the 2012 Making Strides Against Breast Cancer of Boston, MA that will be this Sunday, October 14th.  I wanted to send a note out to get any and all support from co-workers, family, and friends.  Any amount of a donation means so much to me as well as my team!  With this walk, I am a fourth timer  and “The Next Breast Thing” is full of some incredible women all looking to support this cause. Especially for our friend, Rachel who is currently battling with breast cancer.  She is in a chemo stage and though most days are very rough, she has such a positive spirit and beautiful smile through it all.   It’s an amazing cause and to be honest- a life changing experience thus far.  People don’t realize how much this affects them or their loved ones until they are dealing with it firsthand.  I’ve met some very courageous breast cancer patients and survivors along with their families and friends.   I’ve seen what this disease has done to them, yet no matter what they’ve keep fighting the fight which is because of the hope they have! There are amazing doctors and nurses out there helping to fight this disease and one day find a cure.  This is where the “Making Strides Against Breast Cancer – Boston, MA” Walk comes in.   Over the years, this walk means so much to the people fighting this disease and their families as they truly depend on it and the money it raises.  So, from here on out – I plan to participate in this walk every year until that cure if found.

Thank you so much in advance for taking the time to read this email and if you are able to make a donation to Rachel’s team.  It means a lot to me and even more to those who you are helping to save their lives!

If you are able to donate – it is very quick and easy to do, the link to my donation page is:

Again, I cannot thank you enough for your support.  Please let me know if you have any questions.

Love, Callie
