Fundraiser Raffle for my Avon Breast Cancer Walk in DC

    

 

<p>Hi all!</p>

<p>This isn't an official DCMM event but I was told I could post it for anyone interested.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>I'm walking (no motoring!) 39.3 mi in May for the Avon Breast Cancer walk, right here in lovely DC. I'm walking to celebrate my mom hitting 15-years cancer free (woot!) and to spread awareness about her rare type of cancer, Inflammatory Breast Cancer. Early detection and her doctor's awareness of the disease saved her life and Avon's mission is to provide these programs to the DC area. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>As part of the walk, I have a fundraiser goal of $1800. I'm holding this raffle as a fundraiser event to help me get to $1800, as I think giving is part of receiving and it's a fun way to raise money, help local businesses see some action, and for participants to win something great.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Prizes currently include area restaurant gift cards, a spa gift card, G'town Cupcake gift cards (2!), local brewery goodies, and last but not least, <strong>6</strong>, yes 6, Prima gift bags to treat your MINI with! :top: There's some other prizes hopefully in the works, I'm aiming for about 15-20 so that a good majority of people have a shot at something great. I'm working on some MINI swag too :tongue:</p>

<p> </p>

<p>If anyone wants to come out, it will be at Jimmy's Old Town Tavern in Herndon. Obviously bar/food starts whenever, and I will probably start raffling off around 7 and then again at 8 so that it gives people time to arrive, but won't hold up those with kiddies. If anyone wants to come out, there's plenty of parking for the cars across the street, an ATM across the street, good times to be had, and great prizes to be won :biggrin:</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Let me know if you have any questions, and thanks in advance to those that come!</p>
