DEAR THYROID^TM

Happy belated Valentine’s Day from Wings of Hope!,   There are only 61 days left until the Relay for Life at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland!,   We are still number one with a total of $2,886.00 raised, but Team SASH is closely behind us with a total of $2,254.43 raised.   We need to ramp up our fundraising efforts quickly if we’re going to make our goal of $5,000.00

Again, if you haven’t all ready, I encourage our team members to log in to their participant centers on the ACS website and start updating their personal pages for donations.  ,   There is also an application on facebook that will help you with meeting your $100 personal goals.   Both of these tools will provide donators with official receipts from the American Cancer Society.

Have you heard?,   Dear Thyroid and Wings of Hope have teamed up for a fundraiser going on now until March 16^th.   Our thytastic sponsors are giving away up to ten “Invisible No More” bracelets for the person or team that can help us with our fundraising goals.   Find out how you can get FREE JEWELRY and more.

We are also holding a fundraiser amongst our team members:,   the team member that raises $500 between February 7^th and February 28^th will win a $25 Macy’s Gift Card.   So donate in honor of your favorite team member today!,   Our newest teammate, Samantha Kidwell is in the lead with $250 raised last week and Rachel Markus is in second place with $250 raised.

We would like to thank the following people for their generous donations and support:,   Barry Campbell, Tina Bintliff, and Jennifer Dees.   Thank you!

Every dollar puts us one step closer to finding a cure for cancer.   So as you spend today with the one you love, take a moment to remember all those out there who are spending Valentine’s Day alone because cancer took the life of the ones they loved.

So get out there, spread the word and help us with our fundraising goals.   If you’ve all ready donated, please tell your friends and family about Wings of Hope and pass the word along.   Don’t forget to visit our website at:,  ,  http://main.acsevents.org/goto/wings2010 .

Until next week,

Wings of Hope
