Divas For A Cure

Divas For A Cure 2008

Because We Will Endure, We Are Sure to Find a Cure

     In July 2008, Divas For A Cure will take to the road for the third year, traveling cross country to raise funds and awareness to aid in the fight to find a cure for Breast Cancer. Last year I rode nearly 7,000 miles, helping to raise $50,000 for the cause.

       Determined to thrive not merely survive... This was the conclusion my mother, now a TEN YEAR SURVIVOR, made when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and decided "she wasn't done yet" on this earth. She knew she had more living, caring and loving to do.  She is a SURVIVOR, and a DIVA! So for the enduring strength so many survivors demonstrate every day, I am preparing to ride from Atlanta to Canada and back this summer to raise funds to find a cure for breast cancer. Not only for my own sister, daughter, nine nieces and many friends, but also for the many women that will remain anonymous yet impacted by my riding and YOUR generosity.

      Thousands of women annually are diagnosed with breast cancer. One of the reasons I am supporting this ride is that NONE of the funds donated on this site will be used to fund the bikers expenses while traveling on this ride.  Each rider will be responsible for our own personal expenses (food, gas, lodging, etc.). with $.90 cents of each dollar raised last year was donated to the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center for breast cancer research... ($50,000!). THAT is what supporting a cause and finding a cure is all about.  So YOU now know your donation is going directly to a Cancer Center where it will impact the lives of those in need.

     "We Can, We Will"... As a member of the Buffalo Soldier Motorcycle Club of Georgia, I would personally like to invite you to help change the growing statistics of women losing the battle with this disease... by supporting Divas For A Cure, We Can and We Will.  Your contribution will help to meet our goal to double our donation once again to reach our 2008 goal of $100,000!

      Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to our fundraising efforts. Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
