Karen’s Fundraiser to Fight Cancer

This past October I participated in an event called Pledge the Pink, a fundraiser for breast cancer screening, treatment, and research. 1500 people were scheduled to walk 10 miles a day for three days. Sadly, at least one of the planned participants was killed by the disease before the event. Another entrant was diagnosed weeks before the walk and missed the fun in order to fight this cancer.
I hope to walk at the 10th anniversary event in October 2020, but more importantly, I hope to raise a little bit of money to help make a difference. $100 covers the cost of a mammogram. In honor of my five friends who walked with me in 2019, I have set a goal of $500 to be raised by 11/1/2020. My first donation is the money I earned by cashing in the spare change I found around my house. Next will be the money I would have spent on TJ’s star cookies. What will you do without in order to help save lives?
