Money cannot buy health or happiness... but it may find a cure for cancer!

Woo hoo! At this time, I am at 25% of my fundraising goal.  I am very appreciative of all the donations, especially the ones from people I have never met but wanted to support the cause.  I am so passionate about cancer research and this charity endeavor, so it is exciting for me to see that others are equally moved.  Keep spreading the word!

The easiest way to make a donation is through the First Giving page at:  http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/andreavorpahl/stridingforacure.  Money goes directly to Cancer Research Institute and donating is quick, easy, and secured.  If you want to make a donation in memory or honor of someone, there is a comment section that allows you to do so.  You will receive a receipt in the mail and make sure you hold on to it. Why? Because all donations are tax-deductible! 

For those who prefer the good old-fashioned way, Cancer Research Institute will also gladly accept donations in the form of checks.  Here's the info:

Check should be written out to:  Cancer Research Institute

Checks should be mailed to:  
     ATTN:  Erin Kim
     Cancer Research Institute     
     National Headquarters
     One Exchange Plaza
     55 Broadway, Suite 1802
     New York, NY 10006

On the memo line, put:  Andrea Vorpahl / Striding For a Cure

Please make a note on the check if you want the donation to be in memory or in honor of a loved one and, if possible, attach this form with your check.  Once the check is received, I will be notified and will add the donation to the fundraising total.  All those who donate with checks will also be mailed a receipt. 

As always, thanks for your continued love and support.
