Dear Friend,

In October of this year, we will be participating in a very special event called the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure™. Information about this inspiring event can be found at the3day.org. We invite you to share in this journey with us.

WHO?
BREAST.FOOT.FORWARD is a team of five twenty-somethings who all share a single goal.

WHAT?
Our team will be walking 60 miles over the course of three days with thousands of other women and men. Net proceeds from the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure™ are invested in community-based breast health programs and breast cancer research, which will focus on decreasing breast cancer incidence and mortality in the next decade. Without a cure, one person will die of breast cancer every 13 minutes in the United States.

WHEN?
NOW! The event itself doesn’t take place until October, but we need you now! We have a tremendous financial goal and we need as much help as you can possibly afford, volunteer and promote!

WHY?
We’re doing this because we believe in the cause – and now we need to prove to ourselves, our support networks and our communities that we can reach our goals. You should help us because it’s the right thing to do - and because everyone can make a difference. And, well, just think of the free publicity! Everyone likes to see their name or organization listed as a contributor to such a great cause. And think of the possible tax deductions?*

HOW?
Don’t have any spare change? Don’t sweat it! You can help us in so many different ways.

We will be having a raffle as a fundraiser and hope to have an auction as well. Would you consider donating products or services?

HOST A ROCKIN’ EVENT
We need locations for fundraising events. Would you consider donating your space and helping us to plan an event?

SPREAD THE WORD – TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!
Donations can be made to us individually online by clicking Donate at the3day.org - just search for our personal fundraising pages by using our first and last names. You may also call 800-996-3DAY to donate over the phone.
