[bioundgrd] Avon Walk Boston: We need your help

[Rachel McPherson]

Help Andria & Shuai!  :)

_________________________________________________________________________________

Hey Bio-Majors,

We are participating in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer, and we need your help!

All you have to do is, if/when you go eat at UNO 
CHICAGO GRILL this Saturday, March 18, take a 
flier that will automatically donate 20% of your 
bill to the Avon Walk.  It's not a coupon, but is 
a great way to give to charity just by eating. 
You have to eat dinner anyway, so why not be 
charitable while you do it!

If you would like to help, please see our website 
for the flier:  www.geocities.com/avonwalkboston

And see below for more information on how to 
donate directly to our cause.  Remember, you can 
make a difference!!!

We are excited and proud to support the fight 
against breast cancer by participating in the 
Avon Walk for Breast Cancer.  As some of you 
know, breast cancer is the most commonly 
diagnosed cancer among women in the US and can 
even affect men.  Currently, 3 Million women are 
living with breast cancer, with a new diagnosis 
every 3 minutes.  This year alone, 40,000 women 
will die from breast cancer, taking a womanís 
life every 14 minutes.

But you can help stop the trend.  You can make a 
difference in another womanís life by making a 
donation to help us fight breast cancer.  We are 
taking on the Avon Walk challenge of individually 
earning $1800 and walking a marathon and a half 
(May 20-21).  We are just two among thousands 
committed to raising breast cancer awareness and 
to finding a cure.  In total, team ëNeu Hopeí 
must raise at least $3600.  This is a challenging 
task, and we need your help to achieve our goal.  
If you would like to support our cause, you can 
either donate via internet (credit card) or mail 
(check).  Please see below for specific details.
