Let’s face it, breast cancer sucks. Not that one form of cancer is worse than another mind you…
My family and co-workers are going to be participating in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, though we are not racing, we are walking. It takes place this coming Saturday.
I would like to ask that everyone please consider contributing to this cause by supporting me at this link: PLEASE SUPPORT ME! I have a modest goal, but I would love nothing more than to far exceed it!
If you want to participate, I strongly encourage you to do so! Start your own team, join our team, etc. You can even SLEEP IN FOR THE CURE if getting up at 6 on a Saturday morning is not your thing.
My family and I will be walking for my wife’s mother who is a double mastectomy survivor, and for our good friend (and supporter) Kay from Massachusetts, who is a 7 year survivor herself!
Thank you for your support.
Help us run breast cancer out of town!
We saw where another local IT company, Plus Inc., has a number of their employees involved in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure that will take place in September and thought that was a great idea! In fact, two of us here donated to their goal… See, my wife’s mother is a 15 year breast cancer survivor, so this is near and dear to her heart and we couldn’t stop with just a contribution…
So we started a team for our company, and then it hit me, I was not thinking broad enough. We need to harness the power of a great event that took place a few weeks ago called “Google On Main”, and try to get the 2200+ people involved with that to join this awesome cause, so we have renamed our team from “Homeland Secure IT” to “G(o)(o)gle On Main” and have started telling people about it. Our goal is to raise 5000 dollars, which should be easy, right?
Why not join our team and participate in the walk/run/race? We would love to have the company and the inspiration for us to drag or fat bottoms 5k for this cause!
Okay, so you are lazy, you can actually “Sleep in for the Cure”… That’s right, you can contribute and select “Sleep in for the Cure” and while you sleep, your hard earned money is doing something useful!
