LET'S ALL PITCH IN AND GET THIS DONE.....
We need those of you who are great at forwarding on info with your
e-mail
network. Please read and pass on. Peace and good health. It would be
wonderful
if 2001 were the year a cure for breast cancer was found!!!!
This is one note I'll gladly pass on. The notion that we could raise $16
million by buying a book of stamps is powerful! As you may be aware, the
US Postal Service recently released its new "Fund the Cure" stamp to
help
fund breast cancer research. The stamp was* designed by Ethel Kessler of
Bethesda, Maryland.
It is important that we take a stand against this disease that kills and
maims so many of* our mothers, sisters, friends. Instead of the normal
34
cent stamp, this one costs $.40. The additional $.06 will go to breast
cancer research.* A "normal" book costs $6.60. This one is only $8.00.
It takes a few minutes in line at the Post Office and means so much.
If all stamps are sold, it will raise an additional $16,000,000 for this
vital research. Just as important as the money is our support. What a
statement it would make if* the stamp outsold the lottery this week.
What a
statement it would make that we care.
I urge you to do two things TODAY:
* * 1.* * * Go out and purchase some of these stamps.
* * 2.* * * E-mail your friends to do the same.
Many of us know women and their families whose lives are turned
upside-down
by breast* cancer. It takes so little to do so much in this drive.
Please help & pass it on!
