| Dear
Runner: |
| "Strides" is a running experience.
It's not a race---not a competitive |
| event. However, we do face a most
formidable opponent---cancer. |
|
This Killer touches the lives of
every one of us.
|
| If you have suffered a personal
loss to cancer, then you understand |
| our sense of urgency to have you
on our team. Together, we |
| do make a difference! Strides for
Life gives us a way to make a |
| significant contribution by giving
of ourselves. |
|
The Money we raise supports the
American Cancer Society's continuing
|
| research into the cause, cure,
and treatment of cancer: public education, which |
| offers life-saving potential through
prevention and early diagnosis: and |
| patient services, which improves
the quality of life for those stricken with the |
| disease and their families. |
|
We
can make a difference.
|
| We believe our commitment to the fight against
cancer will help |
| change losses---the
loss of lives and loved ones-- |
| into victories against this
killing disease. But, the victories |
| cannot be achieved alone...we
need you.
|
