Pink for Life Update

Team Pink for Life is on track with training and fundraising. We are at 27% of our goal as a team and I am at 57% of meeting my goal. We had to walk the mall this morning as a strong thunderstorm was passing through. Our local mall opens early for mall walkers and it was actually quite nice. It will definitely be our backup for bad weather conditions and also those HOT days of summer when air conditioning is a necessity. We will be walking in October so we won't need to train for the heat.

We have several fundraisers in mind but nothing set in stone except for our upcoming Family Fun Walk on April 18. I don't know about the other 3-Day walkers, but since I registered all I think about is ways to raise money. I'm constantly checking the message boards or reading blogs on how others have been successful with their fundraisers and thinking how we can make it happen for our team.

This week I partnered with sewgirlie.com and they will donate 10% of your purchase (before shipping) to Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure on my behalf. Please check out all their must-have cute items for upcoming birthday, Mother's Day and graduation gifts.

I received an email this morning about being a training walk leader. I have to attend a conference call on April 12. As a training walk leader, I will also be part of the safety crew for the 3-Day event. Looking forward to it!

Be sure to designate a portion of your tax return to donate on my behalf to Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure. I will be forever grateful! You can donate securely online here. No amount is too little or too much! Every dollar helps us get closer to finding a cure.
