My personal message:

Dear Friends and Family,

Welcome to my Personal Fundraising Page for the Wellness Community - a wonderful cancer support organization in the East Bay that provides free support to cancer patients and their caregivers and families. 

If you know someone who has been touched by cancer as I have, then you know how important hope, support and information are.  The Wellness Community played a big part in my recovery.  Please help me give back to this great cause.  And please remember this organization if you know someone who could benefit from it.  See this website for more info:  www.twc-bayarea.org.  Or if you want information about other locations -- see this website: www.thewellnesscommunity.org/corporate/facilities.php.

 Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. You have my heartfelt appreciation for your support -- and feel free to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!  Help me go over my target so we can help lots of cancer patients and their families!

This year we are doing the Big Sur marathon on April 27, 2008 -- a more challenging course than we had last year.  I've been experimenting with a run/walk ratio that is faster because the course closes after 6 hours -- so this should be a good push!!  Whether or not you can donate, please let me know if you would like for me to run in honor of a loved one of yours.

Thank you for considering supporting our efforts! Sincerely, Carol
