Race for the Cure is coming up!

Hi Everyone!

The Race for the Cure is a event that is put on by the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and all of those that sponsor it in its mission to end breast cancer forever! This organization helps raise funds and awareness for the fight against breast cancer!!

On October 11, 2009, the Race for the Cure will be held near Downtown Phoenix! The 2009 Komen Phoenix Race for the Cure is going to be in the State Capitol District of downtown Phoenix. The Race activities include the Survivor and Co-Survivor Area (Pink Hat Cafe, Survivor Goodie Bags), Corporate Village (sponsor booths), and Registration and Packet Pick-Up will take place in Wesley Bolin Plaza. Each of the events on this day will start at 17th Ave. and Adams St. We will circle the Capitol Building and head East to Copper Square before returning to the finish line East of 17th Ave. on Jefferson St.

I will walk Sunday with my family for the loved family and friends that have had and still have breast cancer!

One of my family members has had several surgeries as a result of being diagnosed with breast cancer years ago; however, by God's grace she has survived it all. She is a strong woman who never gave up and I look up to her for that strength!!

So on October 11, 2009, my family and I will walk for her and everything she has come through with having breast cancer!

Will you join us in supporting the race for the cure against breast cancer and if so who will you walk for this year?

Hope to see you there in support of your loved family and friends who have or have had breast cancer in the past!
