If you said CANCER..you are correct!

Jeremy's girlfriend, Carrie, asked if I would help her raise money for American Cancer Society Relay for Life which will take place on July 18-19, 2008. I told her I would love to help since I know with the heat and my asthma I couldnt do it myself. I told her I will be her campaign manager and she will do the walk. I told her she will have to write a letter for me to post on here and I will work on getting people to sponsor her.
So here's her letter:
Dear Blog Readers:
I first would like to thank Wendi for helping me reach our team goal. I know she worked super hard with Jeremy to have him finish top in the school for St. Baldrick's Foundation.
This year I have volunteered to be a team member for the Windy City Wisher for a local event, The American Cancer Sociery Relay for Life.This will take place July 18-19, 2008 . This is an overnight event that raises money for cancer education, research, precention, advocacy efforts, and to fund local patient services.
I'm very excited to take part of it. There is overnight entertainment, food, fun, and several ceremonies to honor and remember cancer survivors. Our team is trying to raise $2000. I am hoping you can help me with this goal by donating to me online.
Thank you very much for any help you can give me and my team. It is greatly appreciated by us and by everyone who is fighting for a cure.
Remember me as we walk all night to remember that CANCER NEVER SLEEPS!!
With Love,
Carrie Hogan
