Dear Friends and Family,
As some of you know, cancer runs in my family and several family members have lost their battle over the years.
Since I will likely not be discovering the cure, I recently accepted the challenge to raise funds to support the Komen North Texas Race for the Cure® on June 7, 2008 in the fight against breast cancer.
One in eight women will be stricken with breast cancer in her lifetime and the more we raise, the more the North Texas Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure can give back to fund vital breast cancer education, screening and treatment programs in our own community and support the national search for a cure.
Click here to visit my personal page and pledge your support.
Please join me in the fight by pledging in support of my participation in the Race or contributing generously to the Komen North Texas Race for the Cure®. Your tax-deductible contribution will fund innovative outreach and awareness programs for medically underserved communities in North Texas and national breast cancer research. It is faster and easier than ever to support this great cause - you can make a donation online by simply clicking on the link at the bottom of this message. Whatever you can give will help! I truly appreciate your support and will keep you posted on my progress. (aka if my heart and lungs explode from running)
Sincerely,
Mary Beth Knight
