Amazing E-mail

I want to share with you an amazing e-mail I received from my cousin Alex!

Hello Team DK!

Some of you may be wondering why there’s a green pail on my desk with a sign, “Spare Change for Stephie” on it. Maybe you haven’t noticed. Either way I’m about to explain it.

My dear cousin Stephanie has been training all summer to run a Half Marathon this fall with Team in Training. Team in Training are an organization who sign you up for a race and help you with your training…in exchange you raise a shitton of money for them, with all money going to fight blood cancers such as leukemia and lymphoma. Stephanie’s mother in law has been battling lymphoma for years and she figures if Lynne can do that, she can totally train for and run a half marathon.

Stephie’s committed to raising $3500. She’s at 70% of her goal right now. My goal is to raise $100 for her by the time I see her on Saturday. I’d love to present her with a big ol’ bucket of change.

So stop by my desk and empty your pockets. For every coin you drop in you can shoot me with Spiderman’s Web or get a free hug.

Oh, and I’m matching donations (up to $100) so if you drop a loonie in my bucket, that’s actually a toonie.

Love you all.

Alex.

Anyone else want to make my day, week, month?

Thanks as always for your support!
