I am participating in AVON 39 The Walk to End Breast Cancer again.  Again I will lead the Pack Up Crew Team (I think I know my trash by now).  As a member of the All Volunteer Crew I am not required to raise money, but every dollar counts.  This is also a very special year for me.  In January I turn 70 and 20 (70 in calendar years, 20 in survivor years), and am very happy to have made both milestones.

You can make a donation right here on my webpage by clicking the "Donate Now" button to the right. If you prefer to write a check, click the “Donate By Mail” button and follow the instructions on the form, or you can send me a check (made out to Avon 39) at 20500 Anndyke Way, Germantown, MD 20874 and I will send it on its way.

Your donations will be managed and disbursed by the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade. The dollars you pledge will put food on the table of a breast cancer patient and her family. They will enable access to mammograms and medicine, fuel research, and save lives. Need any more reason to click that Donate Now button?

Thousands of other 39ers will be walking and hundreds will be crewing. We’re banding together in solidarity and have one goal: to take breast cancer down. So many sisters and mothers and friends have been lost. We see a world without breast cancer for our daughters and nieces. AVON 39 is a force of change that can’t be stopped. By supporting me with a donation, you’re part of it.
