Dear friends,

 

Lauren's Run benefitting CURE Childhood Cancer is right around the corner and there are so many reasons to support the run. 

Here are a few great reasons…..

Some of these precious children are miracles on earth and others are angels in heaven, but all of these children share the devastating fact that each was diagnosed with cancer.  Each had to face months and sometimes years of chemo, radiation and often, experimental treatments. 

These are all children who are part of my prayers and I am certain that many of you have said prayers for some of them and their families.  Lauren's Run is another chance to help.  

The race is Sunday, April 29th at Concourse Office Park in Atlanta.  The 5K starts at 8am and the 2K starts at 9:30am.  The 5K is a Peachtree Road Race Qualifier this year and, as always, is followed by a fabulously fun family picnic with face painters, jumpy castles and carnival games.  

 

I hope that you will run alongside me, make a donation or spread the word.  All of the money raised goes to support pediatric cancer research.  Each of these things will help make a difference in a child's life.

Sincerely,

Rick Woodcock
