My newest fundraising letter

This past year I walked the Susan G Korman 3-day Breast Cancer walk. It was a great experience. Even though I started the walk not knowing anyone I met a lot of wonderful people. I met survivors, ladies who are fighting the cancer (one who was diagnosed a week before the walk, another who had a chemo treatment a few days before the walk), people who lost some one, and some who just wanted to help a good cause. I walked a total of 40 miles. I was not able to walk the full 60 miles due to spraining my ankle a week and a half before the walk. During the walk I wore buttons with the names of the people I walked for. I was soon known as either ankle girl or button girl. I raised $2518 for this cause. I praise God for this great experience and everyone I met, and everyone who helped either with prayers, training, and encouragement when I was ready to give up, or with raising the money.
So since I had a great experience, my blisters are healed, muscles are not sore, and since it will be a week before my 30th birthday I thought what better way to celebrate then to walk 60 miles. So I will train and walk, I am asking if you would donate to help me reach my goal of $2300. Also if you would like me to walk with someone's name please email me at susanamoritz@gmail.com. If you have any questions or would like more infomation or what updates on my progress please let me know.

GOT MAIL!!!

I just learned that they will have a mail center at camp during the 3 day walk. So I am asking anyone who feels the urge if you could send me a letter to keep me encouraged.. maybe even verses would be great. I am expecting to be tired, and I know if I get a letter from my family and friends reminding me that you are praying for me. I know it will be what will keep me going.

Here is the address if would like it.

My Yard Sale

My yard sale did great! I made $200 for my walk. I sold a lot and $50 of the $200 was just donations. I am going to have another yard sale in July.

My training

So I received another donation! It is helps to know that there are people out there that are so willing to help a great cause. my training walk on Saturday was good I walked 4 miles in about an hour. I am going for a walk tonight and tomorrow I am going to attempt the state park in Benicia. Also one of my friends signed up to participate in this as well.

The Walk

Right now I am wrighting a blog about the walk I am doing in September

Here is the letter I am sending out to explain.

I signed up to walk in the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer 3-Day walk for the Cure event!! Yes 20 miles a day for 3 days. Me! The person who does not like to exercise!September 5-7, I'll be participating in a very special event called the Breast Cancer 3-Day. I'll walk 60 miles over the course of three days with thousands of other women and men. The net proceeds will support breast cancer research, education, screening and treatment through Susan G. Komen for the Cure and the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund.I've agreed to raise at least $2,200 in donations. So I need your help. Would you please consider making a donation? All donations would be greatly appreciated. Keep in mind how far I'm walking - and how hard I'll have to train. You can donate online at http://08.the3day.org/goto/SusanAMoritz or you can also call 800.996.3DAY to donate over the phone. I decided to take on this challenge in honor of my sister who was diagnosed at the age of 17 and is a survivor. According to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, more than 200,000 American women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year, and nearly 40,000 will die from the disease. That's why I'm walking so far. To do something bold about breast cancer. I hope that you'll share this incredible adventure with me by supporting me in my fundraising efforts.Thank you in advance for your generosity!P.S. Ask your employer if they will double your donation through a matching gift program.
