I am going to run in the Nike Women's Marathon and I need your help and support. I am raising funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) as a participant in their Team In Training program and I'm asking you to help by making a donation to my fund-raising campaign. I am running in honor of a wonderful woman and family member who's name is Ursula. Ursula is one of the sweetest people you will meet. She has such a giving heart and a perpetual positive attitude. Ursula has always enjoyed helping others and she has worked in many facilities in order to give care where it is needed. Ursula was recently diagnosed with a malignant myeloma- cancer of the plasma cells. Currently she is undergoing a chemo treatment for her illness. Each of you most likely knows someone who is selfless with their time, love and energy, well this is Ursula. Please help me in finding a cure for myeloma as well as other blood cancers. Here is how you can help:
The goal of TNT is to increase funding to support the Society’s mission while promoting fitness and healthy lifestyles. TNT uses the medium of endurance sports to raise funds for vital patient services and life-saving research.
Please click here to donate online quickly and securely plus learn more about my progress. You will receive a confirmation of your donation by email and I will be notified as soon as you make your donation. You can also click on any of the links to the left to support my campaign.
Each donation helps accelerate finding a cure for leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. More than 823,000 Americans are battling these blood cancers. I am hoping that my participation in Team In Training will help bring them hope and support. Any size donation, great or small, makes a difference. I really appreciate your support and will keep you posted on my progress.
On behalf of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, thank you very much for your support. I greatly appreciate your generosity.
