Did you know that a new case of invasive breast cancer is diagnosed in the U.S. every 3 minutes?

The Avon Walk for Breast Cancer is a remarkable, interactive weekend Walk that raises critical dollars to provide access to care and finding a cure for breast cancer. The Walk provides the opportunity for all participants to make a tangible commitment toward eradicating breast cancer while also increasing critical awareness of this deadly disease.

This walk is being held May 5th and 6th in Washington DC.

Please consider making a donation (of any amount, from $1.00 to ???) by visiting the following link: Donate to the Avon Walk For Breast Cancer

As you will see, the link takes you to a specific "Walkers" donation page (which is secure by the way). This walker happens to be a friend of mine that is participating in the walk. All contributions go directly to Avon, and she is credited with the donation received, and you with the donation given. Simply put, she has a goal she has committed to reaching in total donations, and I am assisting her in meeting this goal, with your help. Her Name is Nora, and she is a active member in the community where we live... from working as a vet tech and helping to save animals, to helping Hurricane Katrina Victims, pets, to various other civil duties and contributions. My assisting her, is completely anonymous (as in, she has no Idea that I am helping her to meet her goal for the Avon event, and I'd like to keep it that way).

Should you happen to make a donation, simply use your own name, or you too can remain Anonymous. If you do make a donation, and choose to have your name displayed as the donor, it will be viewable on her page at Avon located here: Nora's Page , and you can also read a little more about her participation in this.

I truly appreciate anyone that can help me, help Nora meet her goal.

Additional Information about Where the money goes can be found here:

PS: I do realize that some may not have any money, or means to donate. If thats the case, please pass the link to this post along to a friend. Again, I appreciate anything you could do to help.

I think I am going to join the the walk that we do in our city. Personally speaking, it is a great cause and awareness is one of the keys to beating cancer.

I think anyone who can, should take part as well if they have it where you are, and if not, please make a donation for the cause. You can also donate at any time for any cancer fund. For those of you who do not know, I myself have cancer, and if it wasn't for research and people donating, I might not be here to ask you to do your part in beating this disease.

If you live in Canada and don't know where to donate, you can go to the link below and find out where to give. Also is a link to the awareness site for the cancer that I have.

Canadian Cancer Society - Société canadienne du cancer
ThyCa: Thyroid Cancer Survivors' Association

I was just informed that paypal donations cannot be made at that site, so if you do not have a credit card, but do have a paypal account, PM me for my paypal info, and I will make the donation for you in your name upon receipt, plus, provide proof of the donation in this thread...

Thanks Everyone!

I won't be taking part of this event, However I do have my team together again from last year's Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society. We did raise over $30,000 as a team last year and are hoping to top that this year!
