Running to Save Lives!

Dear family & friends,
I have about two months to go before the San Antonio 1/2 marathon and I am starting to feel like a runner again. Well, maybe not a runner, but at least I think I can finish! :) Thank you to everyone who has already donated to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I have been overwhelmed by everyone's generosity!

For those who don't know, I am raising funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) as a participant in their Team in Training program. I'm training in memory of my college friend Sasha and I hope you'll join me by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. My personal goal is to raise $2,100 and I only need an additional 15 people to donate $100 to make that goal.

Please use the link in this email to donate online quickly and securely plus learn more about my progress (and see a photo of Sasha and me.) You will receive a confirmation of your donation by email and I will be notified as soon as you make your donation.

Each donation helps accelerate finding a cure for leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. More than 823,000 Americans are battling these blood cancers. I am hoping that my participation in Team in Training will help bring them hope and support.

On behalf of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, thank you very much for your support. I greatly appreciate your generosity. I hope everyone is having a great fall!

Best,
Alison Begor

P.S. I would appreciate it if you would forward this email to as many people as you can to encourage them to donate as well. Thanks again.
