Relay for Life - I need your help

This year I am helping save lives from cancer by taking part in the American Cancer Society Relay For Life. Our team, Bleacher Bums, has raised over $128,000 since the team started in 2006. Last year, we set the goal at $50,000 and came just short, raising about $46,000. This year we once again set the goal at $50,000. Can we do it? Of course we can!

I'm participating in celebration of my grandmother and aunt, both of whom have the amazing fortune of being able to say they're survivors. My grandma will be celebrating 5 years cancer free this June and I'd really love to be able to show her my support by meeting my fundraising goal.



So, I need your help! In order for us to reach our goal I need to personally raise $500 in the next 52 days. Will you help saves lives and donate to me now?

Remember that every dollar counts. Please consider giving up that coffee run one morning and donating that $5 to Relay instead. If each person on this email was able to give just $10, I be over halfway to my goal. As a special incentive, if you donate $50 or more, I'll send you a tasty batch of anti-cancer sugar cookies.

Just click here to make a secure online donation to my personal fundraising page. It only takes a minute to donate and every dollar counts! Or feel free to mail a check to me, made out to American Cancer Society. Contact me at bakesweettreats@gmail.com and I'll give you my address, or the address for the local ACS branch.

Thank you in advance for helping me do my part in this fundraising challenge!
