Andrea's triathlon for a worthy cause.

My sister in-law is taking part in a triathlon and this is what she has to say about it......

[I'll be competing in my first triathlon this coming April, which I'm training for through the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training program.

In addition to the physical commitment, I'm also committed to raising $4,400 for the society that will go to researching cures for Leukemia and other blood related cancers. I'll be racing in honor of a local girl named MaddieLou Ledergerber, who is four years old and from Mount Bethel, PA. She has been undergoing cancer treatment since she was two years old but is doing well. Patients like MaddieLou help bring a face to such an important cause.

I'm asking you to help by making a contribution!  Please use the link in this email to donate online quickly & securely.  You will receive email confirmation of your donation and I will be notified as soon as you make your donation. I thank you in advance for your support, and really appreciate your generosity!! I'm just beginning my training and fundraising and have quite a ways to go. So if you know anyone who might be interested in making a donation, please don't hesitate to forward them this email or my information.]

Any and all donations are welcome in helping her reach her goal. By simply passing this link to a friend you will have helped. Keep checking the link to view her progress in reaching the $4,400 required.
