Donations

In 2003, we raised over $5600 that went to the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer, the Komen Race for the Cure and the Atlanta 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer! In 2004, we raised over $5200 that went to Avon Walk for Breast Cancer, the Komen Race for the Cure and the Atlanta 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer. Of Course, we intend to keep walking for the breast cancer cause. Please help us do even better in 2005!

THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Having recently received the results of my first mammogram, I am moved to reflection. (The mammogram and the subsequent sonogram were negative.) There are so many women who do not have the support of insurance or family to help them when they need to have a test or to deal with the results. This is one of the reasons that I am so passionate about continuing to walk in the Breast Cancer Walks. Thank you very much to all those who have already donated money and items for the yard sale and auction fundraiser.

We ask for your support for these walks. Keep in mind that no donation is too large or too small. Since money cannot be moved between accounts, we will need to control which account each donation goes into. Info@erinjoi.com for an address to which to send checks and to whom they should be made out. If you would prefer to donate by credit card or direct payment from a bank account, you can use Paypal or send a check made out to Breast Cancer Walk. This way we can divide the money to support all of the walks and be sure that all of the minimums are met. If you prefer to donate online, click on the donate now link. This year we need to raise $6000 this year with $4000 being raised by the end of May. We know that with your help this can be done. For all that you do to support the cause, we thank you.

Having trouble deciding on an amount to donate? There are 1500 miles on my annual training schedule. Consider one of the following ten options:
1. At the end of September, donate the amount of miles Erin-Joi will have walked. It will be around $1500.
2. Donate the number of miles Erin-Joi will walk in a particular month. Contact me for possible numbers.
3. Donate the cumulative miles Erin-Joi has walked at any given time, contact us for the amount.
4. Donate any amount on a monthly basis. Contact us and we will send you a Paypal link which will do the donations automatically.
5. Donate a special number, your birthday, anniversary, someone's 5 year survival date.
6. Donate the age at which you or someone you love learned of their diagnosis, survival etc.
7. Take lunch to work for a day, a week, a month and donate what it would have cost to eat out.
8. Donate in someone else's name instead of giving them a gift certificate.
9. Donate the cost of a mammogram in your area. Call your local hospital to check the price and make an appointment for yourself or someone you love while you are at it.
10. Donate whatever makes you feel good. No donation is too large or too small.
