When [name] was diagnosed with breast cancer, we all asked the question: Is there anything I can do? Well, I have the answer. We can walk. We can raise money. We can commit to the amazing experience of the Susan G. Komen 3-Day.
I'm asking everyone in our family to join [Team Name] and walk 60 miles over three days to celebrate her spirit and raise funds to end breast cancer through the Komen 3-Day.
I hope to raise at least [$amount] for breast cancer research and community programs that might save the lives of countless other mothers, sisters and aunts. Together, [Team Name] can do it. You can count on me to do everything I can to help you train, raise funds and prepare for this incredible journey.
There's an African proverb that says "If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together." If we all go together, I know we will go far.
As a family, let's gather together in the spirit of healing, hope and love. Commit to join me! This is the first step. To register for the Komen 3-Day, go to The3Day.org or call 800-996-3DAY. I'll give you a call this weekend to find out what you've decided.
Love,
[Name]
