I am writing to tell you about an extraordinary event that I am participating in and I need your help.
On Saturday, August 16th, 2008, I will join hundreds of others in Against the Tide, a one-mile, open-water fundraising swim and three-mile recreational walk and Kayaking event to benefit the Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition's work in the fight against breast cancer. Now in its 15th year, Against the Tide, has become a powerful and inspiring day of hope in the fight against this devastating disease.
The money raised by Against the Tide supports the MBCC's work of organizing and coordinating diverse efforts to prevent combat and ultimately cure breast cancer, which threatens the life of one woman in eight. The MBCC will share a portion of the proceeds with Silent Spring Institute, a nonprofit research organization that conducts innovative scientific research to study associations between breast cancer and the environment.
This year, my goal is to raise $1000.00. Please help me reach it by sponsoring me to Kayak in Against the Tide. Whatever the amount, your donation will go a long way towards providing hope for a healthier future for all women.
Thank you so much for your support, and for joining me in the fight against this terrible epidemic. For more info or to make a donation, go to www.sjmulligan.com
Sincerely, Steve Mulligan
