I know that there are plenty of people out there that hate getting asked to donate money and whatnot, but I honestly would not ask (especially on my blog) if it didn't mean so much to me and if it wasn't a cause that I firmly believe in. Last year, I was able to participate in Relay for Life and I honestly can say that it had SUCH a big impact on me, especially because I lost my mother to ovarian cancer and my youngest sister has leukemia. Therefore, I want t go all out this year and do everything I possibly can to raise money for this cause. Please join me in honoring my mother and sister and everyone else who suffers from cancer. Please find it in your heart to donate if even a few dollars, as every dollar counts!
Each year, on hundreds of college campuses across the country and in thousands or communities around the world, one event unites millions of total strangers in the global fight against cancer. That event is the American Cancer Society Relay for Life. This year, I will be participating in it as team captain for the "Climbers for a Cure" team. Relay for Life is an American Cancer Society fundraising event that raises more than $385 million dollars annually to support the American Cancer Society's mission to save lives from cancer.
The Utah State University Really will take place on April 13, 2012, and I have made it my goal to raise $500 before then. I blog today to ask you to please help me reach that goal. I am more than half way there, with currently $330 raised already. Please help me put an end to this disease that has caused us all so much pain!As a broke college student, I know what it means to say that "every dollar counts". And it's so true - any donation, large or small, will save lives. Every dollar will take us closer to a future where cancer is a thing of the past. Please follow the link at the bottom of this post to visit my personal Relay webpage, as you can donate via this site.
Thank you so much in advance for your support and I look forward to blogging about my progress!!!
