Making Strides Against Breast Cancer

Good Morning, Afternoon, Evening.... Happy Day ! : )

Hey friends just wanted to see if anyone would be interested in learning about an awesome Local Community Event !

It’s the American Cancer Society’s 2009 MAKING STRIDES AGAINST BREAST CANCER 5k walk! (just 3.1 miles)

Breast Cancer is the NUMBER ONE most frequently diagnosed cancer in Washington State.

Its just 3.1 miles so it would most likely only take an hour and a half of your time! Imagine just an hour and a half, just 3.1 miles and you could be making a positive impact on someone’s life who may be affected by breast cancer or cervical cancer at some point in their lifetime.

The walk isn’t until SEPTEMBER 27th so it gives you plenty of time to mark your calendars and prepare for it! The reason the American Cancer Society’s Breast Cancer event is so awesome is because there is NO REGISTRATION FREE and NO MINIMUM FUND-RASING required to partake. You can fundraise as little as you’d like or as much as you’d like! We just want it to be a really big community event….Just more the merrier! : )

So everyone is invited! All ages are welcome! You can Participate as an individual or as a group of friends, family or coworkers!I’ll be there! So you can always walk with me and my friends, family, and coworkers! There is going to be a lot of people there its going to be a lot of fun! And its always even more fun when you know your doing something good for your community!

If it sounds like something you would be interested in learning more about. feel free to contact me

Then if you are super interested. Id love to invite you out to our Kick Off Breakfast that we will be having July29th, where you can come and learn more about the event, listen to some awesome speakers from the community, and some speakers who have been affected by cancer, you will also learn more about where the funds will be going that we raise from this walk.
The general point of the walk is to raise funds specifically allocated to breast cancer research, education, and advocacy AND to support the Breast and Cervical Health Program in the Snohomish County and in Washington State! Which is really important because some people can’t afford to go get their mammograms or pap tests, and that program funds those tests for women who can’t afford it. The overall goal is to get everyone tested early, so early detection, early treatment, faster recovery, so that there is a better chance in saving lives!

We can save lives!.. One Stride at a time!

So come partake in MAKING STRIDES AGAINST BREAST CANCER!Good for your mind, body, and soul!
