It's about halfway through the season and I just wanted to thank everyone who has supported us so far and tell you about some upcoming events. We are now up to 7 miles for our long runs/walks- more than halfway to that half marathon! We also have a good start with our fundraising, but we still need a lot of help there. We are at about $1700 toward our goal of $8700. With your help, we have raised quite a bit so far, but there is still a long way to go in our fight against blood cancers!
Please contribute what you can and join us at our upcoming events if you're in the area.
March 28: Soup supper and bake sale at North Crow River Lutheran Church in Cokato, MN. Enjoy a variety of homemade soups and take home some delicious baked goods. $5 minimum donation per person.
April 12: Pampered Chef party at Becca's apartment in St. Paul, MN. Purchase your favorite Pampered Chef items from the full catalog and 15% of sales will go to LLS. Email Becca at becca@alumni.uchicago.edu to RSVP and get directions.
You may also place your order online at http://www.pamperedchef.biz/maryalbright. Enter Becca Nelson as the host to have your order count toward the fundraiser. We can ship to anywhere in the country!
April 17: Bootleggers Beer Bust, 8 to 10 pm. Purchase a cup from the TNT table for $5 and fill it with domestic taps or rail drinks for only $1 as many times as you want! Be sure to come out early to get the most for your money and show your support for the Team! Bootleggers is located at 323 North 1st Avenue in Downtown Minneapolis.
As always, you can donate directly to LLS through our website. Hope to see you soon!
