Our Boston walk last year alone raised $4 Million dollars to help fund research, education and other programs for breast cancer in a very difficult economic climate. Just recently, Theresa Hines Kerry announced she had been diagnosed with breast cancer and has begun her own personal battle against this disease. Everyone we speak to knows someone who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Each member of the team is responsible to raise a minimum of $2,300 to participate in the walk. There are several avenues to support our team. You can support by donating online at www.the3day.org/goto/untouchablespirit and choose a team member to support. If you want to embark upon an amazing journey yourself, consider joining the cause. There are “Getting Started” meetings across the state. We are also sponsoring a raffle. The prize is a pair of Red Sox tickets. And they are not tickets to just any Red Sox game, but a game against our rival, the New York Yankees. We are selling these raffles for $10.00 each or 3 for $25.00. To purchase raffle tickets, please contact us at 508-252-9513. All of the money raised in the raffle will support the members of the team. The best defense against breast cancer is education, early detection but ultimately a cure. Please help us raise the funding we need to participate in the walk and contribute to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure. And perhaps get a chance to watch the Red Sox beat the Yankees again!
