On November 2 thousands
of people around the world will wear a bald cap to honor those who battle
cancer. I am joining the Be Bold,Be Bald movement and going bald on that day. Well not totally bald.....
but I will be wearing a bald cap!
I
will be retreating on that day, the Patchwork Angels Retreat, and want to
invite all those Angels to join me in going bald that day. I’ll have a supply of bald caps and a t-shirt
which I will exchange for a $25 donation which will go to my BBBB fundraising
efforts.
I
hope to raise at least $500 which will be donated to the Heaps of Hope
organization from Wellesley Mass for several reasons, most of all because they helped
someone I know who desperately needed help when she was fighting cancer. “Heaps
of Hope assists women with cancer who struggle with prescription co-payments,
mounting medical bills, and expenses like groceries for their families. The
beneficiaries of Heaps of Hope are women who are uninsured or underinsured. We
are dedicated to providing a life line to women by easing the burdens created
by cancer.”
If
you would like to donate to my cause, my BBBB fundraising page can be found here.
And
no, I have not quit Relay, I will be raising funds for the 2013 Relay For Life
too!
