3-Day Fundraising: $486.67 to go!
Jan. 27th, 2011 10:37 amI have raised $280 toward the $2,300 minimum I need to raise in order to take part in the Atlanta Susan G. Komen 3-Day For The Cure. Since I'm going to be matching all the donations made on my behalf out of my own pocket, and then my employer will match me, I'm actually doing pretty well. In order to make my minimum, I really just need to raise $486.67 more.
I also have a San Francisco Bay Area 3-Day fundraising minimum to make because I'm walking that city as well, but for right now I'm asking for donations toward my Atlanta total. And, for what it's worth, I have no intention of just stopping when I reach $2,300 in each city -- those are just the minimums to walk. I'd like to go much further; each dollar raised is a dollar that can be spent providing transport to treatment or to a mammogram, paying for the mammogram itself, or paying for clinical trials and research.
If you are interested in helping me with my fundraising, you can donate at http://www.the3day.org/goto/jayfurr -- you will be given an opportunity to choose your donation level, and even schedule your donation over four payments instead of it all coming out at once. And at the end of the process, you'll be given a formal receipt for your taxes. It's an easy, secure process and takes only a couple of minutes -- and in so doing, you'll be helping with a fight that we wage TODAY so ALL our daughters and sons don't have to fight it tomorrow.
Thank you in advance for your support!
