AVON Breast Cancer 3Day – Sandra Butler's Pledge Page
Greetings!
July 27th – 29th I will walk 60 miles from San Jose to San Francisco with more than 3,000 walkers to raise money for breast cancer. This year, 180,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and over 40,000 women are expected to die. A woman’s risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime is 1 in 9. There is no way to prevent breast cancer, but if it is detected early, it can often be treated successfully. There is no way to cure breast cancer, but medical research is closer to that goal than ever before. The mission of the Avon Breast Cancer 3–Day Crusade is to provide medically underserved women with direct access to breast cancer early detection and support services, and to fund medical research to find the causes of and a cure for breast cancer and other women’s cancer. Why am I walking? Personally, to be a part of something that is very important. And to help raise awareness and money for underserved women to receive the medical services they need. I have agreed to raise $1900 in pledges before June 29th. But, I need your help. Would you please consider making a fully tax-deductible pledge to help me meet my goal before June 29th! Please keep in mind how far I’m walking and how hard I’ll have to train for the Avon Breast Cancer 3–Day between now and July. I hope that you’ll share this incredible adventure with me—by supporting me in my fundraising efforts. Thank you for your generosity and support of this program! Sincerely, Sandy Butler Walker # 4073 |
