This past October, I walked in the 3-Day in Philly. If you don’t know what the 3-Day is, it’s a 3-Day Walk of 60 miles (20 miles per day) to raise money for breast cancer research. Each participant this year had to collect $2200 donations (the amount raises each year usually) in order to participate in the walk. The event in Philadelphia raised over $6.5 million!

So you’re probably wondering, why did a girl from Tampa fly to Philly to walk in the cold and rain? Good question. I walked with my sister (also from Tampa) and friends from Michigan, Tampa, and Maryland. We decided that Philadelphia would be the best place that was central for all of us. I did inspire friends to walk in Tampa, and for the 2007 walk, I’ve decided to join them.

You can help me reach my goal of $2200 with a SMALL donation and in return, get some free advertising for your website or blog. If you donate $20 to my campaign, here’s what you get in return - I’ll thank you (and link to your blog or website) in a post on 3DayMom. You’ll also be linked in my sidebar for the next TWELVE months as a 3-Day sponsor. 3DayMom is a PR4 website, which means your blog or website will receive the benefit of being linked from a high pagerank and high traffic website. Try and get advertising like that for $20 elsewhere!

To donate, just visit my official 3-day website at: http://the3day.org/tampabay07/colleenc

Not to mention, you’ll have my gratitude, AND you’ll be helping to fund important breast cancer research and outreach programs.

If you are unable to donate online with a credit card or check, you can donate by Paypal by sending your contribution directly to me (colleen_ccATyahooDOTcom) and I will use my PayPal debit card to make the contribution in your name. Your donation will appear in the official tally just as if you had done it yourself.
