Going Gold
Help! I've been given a task that matters a great deal to me. It matters a great deal to the almost 16,000 American children diagnosed with cancer each year. And it really, really matters to their parents!
Children are more precious than gold. I'm honored to be going gold to conquer childhood cancer. My organization, the American Cancer Society, has created a restricted fund for pediatric cancers and a new team called "Gold Together" will lead the way in this year's Relay For Life events across the nation. My goal is only $5,000 for my team in Dallas, Texas. However, I would like to at least double this amount for my team.
I cannot do this alone. Childhood cancers have not received the attention they deserve. My voice can be loud, but it's not loud enough. I need many more loud, enthusiastic souls to join forces with me and bring an end to the suffering caused by childhood cancer.
If you're on this page, please consider joining the team, donating, or sponsoring. To join the team or donate, click HERE. To find out about how your company can become a sponsor, click HERE.
This blog is not here to raise money. It exists to help create ideas or share ideas. However, childhood cancer deserves the attention today. It screams out! It's way past time to save our kids. Help me and let's end childhood cancer.
