Please Support Me in the 2007 Relay for Life

More than 1.3 million new cancer cases are expected to be diagnosed in the United States this year. Those are staggering statistics, but there is hope. That is why I am, once again, very excited to announce my participation in the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life event on June 23th-24th in Fullerton.

Thank you to everyone who helped me exceed my fundraising goal last year. You have inspired me to participate this year as a Team Captain for my company's team, the Grape AEPs, and raise my personal goal to $300.

I will be participating in this event in remembrance of both grandfathers that I lost to cancer and for my two aunts who are in remission.

If you can donate $10, $20, $50, or anything you can, it would mean so much and would be a great contribution to our goal!

Relay For Life is an overnight event that brings our community together to help support the American Cancer Society and its lifesaving mission to eliminate cancer as a major health problem. The Society works hard every day to prevent cancer and save lives by supporting groundbreaking research, affecting public policies that protect us from cancer, and educating people on how to prevent or detect cancer early. The Society helps people with cancer right here in our own community. And our efforts at Relay For Life can help the American Cancer Society to keep working toward a cancer-free future.

I want to invite you to show your support in the ongoing fight against cancer by joining us for this year's event. PLEASE CHECK OUT MY WEBSITE BY CLICKLING THE LINK BELOW for more information, including details on the inspirational Survivors' Lap and the moving Luminaria Ceremony. We hope to see you there! If you can't join us, will you please visit the site and make a donation to support our efforts? Either way, you will make a real difference in the lives of people facing cancer – and in the lives of the people who love them. Thank you!

ALSO, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS OR TO JUST WISH ME LUCK IN MY EFFORTS!
