New legs to battle Breast Cancer!

January 1, 2011

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I heard a bit of sad news today about a friend of mine.  She is a former Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleader and we spent many games together working in the Penthouse Suites of the old Veterans Stadium.  She is a breast cancer survivor, but she learned late last night (yes, on New Year's Eve!) that it has metastasized to her brain.  And today is her birthday!

I called on you back in October and once again I need your help. You may remember that many of my former Eagles Cheerleaders, with the help of the NFL Alumni, organized a partnership with the Susan G. Komen Philadelphia affiliate and United Healthcare of PA.  Back in September, "Team Ra-Ras Kicks Breast Cancer" debuted an on-field dance routine with the help of R&B pop star Jay Sean singing “Do You Remember”.  For each click of the YouTube video made on that day, UHC agreed to donate 10 cents “per click”, up to a million clicks, to the Komen Philadelphia affiliate. In under ONE month, with all your help, we reached and exceeded that goal. $100,000 went directly to help fight breast cancer. Unbelievable!

Now, UHC has “kicked” up their donation, and we are now being offered yet another chance to click for breast cancer.  They have agreed to donate an additional $50,000 to Komen if the video receives 5 million hits.  And ANOTHER $50,000 if it receives 8 million hits.  We are currently at 2.3 million!

 PLEASE help me to reach these goals, especially for my friend who is fighting for her life from this deadly disease.  She has a husband and kids.  PLEASE start clicking away again to help us earn even more money for this dreadful disease that has affected the personal lives of my dearest stepmother, mentors, friends and other dear family members.

My love and MY thanks to you ALL!
