And even better!!! The person who donated 150$ has offered their credit as a raffle prize! So to anyone that donates 10$ or more, you now have a chance of winning a 150$ credit for any type of rework!

If you donate, merely post here stating "DONATION SENT" and your name will go into a pot to win the 150$ credit. I will take names until July 25th at 12pm, and do the draw then!

Be generous... cancer really sucks.

Crap... I didn't post the draw... just contacted the winner... Loafer won it. I put a bunch of post-its with names on them for every 10$ increment they donated, and I had my son pull the paper out.

Robert Courtemanche is the official winner!

The walk's coming up fast!  Thanks again to all who have donated!

There's still time to donate, and remember.. it's all tax deductible!

Only 10 days until my big walk, and only $360 left to raise before I'm allowed to participate!  Every little bit helps!  

Thanks, everyone!

Just one last reminder to you all that I'm walking tomorrow, so this is the last day I can receive donations from anyone!   I'm still $840 from my goal, but just $90 away from meeting the minimum requirement to participate in the walk, so every little bit counts!  

It's quite the sign that times like these take their tole on charities such as this..  

Which is why everyone who has donated so far deserves a HUGE thank you for your support.  

Thanks to all, and wish me luck!

Success!

Thank you all for supporting my journey.

With your help, 4611 walkers were able to raise over $11 million dollars in support of womens cancer research.  With your help, we are that much closer to bringing this fight to an end.

My walk went well, it took 7 hours to walk 34kms which (although not a race) put me in the first 200 to cross the finish line on Day 1!  It was an experience of a lifetime, and I look forward to doing it again.

So again, I thank you all for your support for the 2009 Walk to End Breast Cancer.. I couldn't have done it without your help.

so very sore...

Like I said Saturday, Congrats man it truly is a wonderful thing that you did...Amazing

On a side note though I find it somewhat troubling that a charity can dictate how much you have to raise before you can do the walk... I would think in these times they would accept anyone who wants to help with open arms...i.e. someone who might only be able to raise $100 , do they seriously tell that person we don't want your money and no you can't walk with us and support our cause?

No their happy to take your money, but if you can't raise the $2000 you get two options:

1) You don't walk

2) You pay the remainder of the balance out of your own pocket.  

My fiancee did the walk last year and while I think it's a great thing that Brock did, (my fiancee couldn't even finish the walk) I don't approve of the business practices of this charity.
