The Breast Cancer 3Day Walk

[LoloWherty at aol.com]

Hi to all GCNA neighbors,
 
In November, I will be embarking on an incredible journey.  I will be  
walking 60 miles in three days,  20 miles a day to raise money and  awareness in the 
fight against breast cancer.  The money will be raised for  the Susan B. 
Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and the National Philanthropic Trust  Breast Cancer 
Fund.  I'm walking for many reasons,  my immediate  family and I have been 
fortunate in that we have not been affected by breast  cancer.  I have many 
friends who have not been quite so lucky.  I'm  walking to honor lives lost and to 
celebrate those that are survivors.  I'm  walking because I have the health 
and energy to do this and to reach out to my  community asking for help in my 
fund raising efforts.   I'm presently  training with a team and we are walking 
very early every morning to beat  the hot desert heat.  Thousands of people 
will be walking in Phoenix in  November and we will be sleeping overnight in 
tents.  My hopes  are that some day through research this disease will be 
completely eradicated  and my family, friends and all others will not have to come 
face to face with  breast cancer.   Won't you please help out and show your  
support as a community in this fight against breast cancer?   I  have to raise 
$2200 in order to walk. My personal goal is to raise  $4000.   Your donation 
will go towards research, education  and help those that can't afford the costs 
of screening and medical bills.   You can donate through my website at 
_www.The3Day.org/Arizona06/lorrainewherty_ 
(http://www.The3Day.org/Arizona06/lorrainewherty) .  Net  proceeds benefit The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation 
and  the National Philanthropic Trust funding breast cancer research, education  
and treatment.  
 
Thank you all in advance for your support.
 
Sincerely,
Lorraine  Wherty
