You'll notice I changed the look of our blog. I was just getting tired of the green. Though, I am NEVER tired of seeing green in the form of donations!
Today is our deadline with TNT for fundraising. Since we signed a committment to raise a minimum of $9,000, we are now responsible for the remaining funds. However, we do have 30 days after the marathon to continue to fundraise. All donations made between today and July 3 will be reimbursed to us.
If you have not yet made your donation-- don't wait any longer! DONATE TODAY! If you are making an online donation, please click on DAN'S link to the right of the screen. After our recommittment of $1000 in March, we decided to just pool all donations into one account. Since my minimum is fulfilled, we will now concentrate on Dan's. Thanks!
Together we can find a cure. Pardon the cliche, but Dan and I will work to find it "one step at a time". So that less children have to undergo the torture of chemotherapy; that less best friends have to wonder why someone can't come out and play; that less kids will have to wonder why their parent is sick; so that less spouses will have to bury the love of their lives too soon; so that less patients and their families have to endure the heartbreak of Leukemia & Lymphoma.
We are anxiously awaiting word about a possible corporate sponsorship from Dan's company. Since DaVita is a dialysis company, normally they do not make donations to unrelated causes. However, we are hoping they will approve our proposal for corporate sponsorship. Patients with Leukemia & Lymphoma are at higher risk of developing kidney failure, and, therefore, needing dialysis. We hope to hear later today if our proposal was accepted! Keep your fingers crossed!
