TWM'S TEAM FOR REVLON RUN/WALK
On Saturday, May 3rd, our 5th TWM Team will be participating in the 11th Annual EIF Revlon Run/Walk For Women. We hope that you will join us and feel the strength of thousands bonded by the power of a common dream--to keep ALL women safe from cancer. Your participation and contributions lead to cutting-edge medical breakthroughs and diagnostic treatment services for suffering women. These breakthroughs do not help only those women with cancer, but also the friends, families and loved ones whose lives have been affected by the many forms of this disease. The support of the masses brings hope to the suffering and celebrates the lives of so many brave women who lost their battles. If you can't join us in the walk, you can join us in the fight by making a pledge or donation on behalf of one of our team members. Your pledge will help fund important research into the cause and cure of women's cancers, prevention, education and support service programs. Every pledge will help bring us one step closer to a cure. For more information email our Team Captain Mary Brower at Mugglymoo@yahoo.com
COST:FREE! But you need to raise lots of dough....
