Relay for Life: the final push is here

Uncategorized

So little time

Relay for Life of Greater Fall River is just two weeks away–and our team is a long way from reaching its goals for this year’s event. My personal goals are also a long way from being reached as well. We need your help to get us over the hump between now and then. To do that, I am announcing three fundraisers you can get involved with.

Hairless vs. Hairy at Relay for Life

The first of these is simple: vote in the Hairless versus Hairy Harry Challenge. Here, you get to help decide whether I go bald for Relay or not. If you  want me to go hairless–at least at the top of my head–go to my personal Relay Fundraising page and make a donation in an odd dollar amount–$11 or $25, for example. Those donations will count as votes for a bald Harry.

I need to raise another $710…

If you want me to keep my hair,  go to my personal Relay Fundraising page and make an even dollar donation–$10 or $26 or $30, for example. Those donations will count as votes to keep the hair on my head.  The minimum donation is $10. I post the current score whenever it changes on our Walking with Jane Facebook page.

Yard Sale Appearance for Relay

If you don’t want to give online and are going to be in Westport on Sunday, June 22 between noon and 5 p.m., I’ll be at the Westport Social Club Craft and Yard Sale on Main Rd. in Westport selling Walking with Jane merchandise and taking donations and votes. Come by and browse. All our table’s proceeds will go to support our Relay for Life team.

Art for Sale for Relay

Morgan Bozarth has donated one of her paintings to the cause. It is the subject of a silent auction on our Facebook page. The last day to bid online on it is June 26, but we will take bids at Relay until midnight June 27. It is an impressive piece of work that will look good in your home–and is a good investment as well. The current bid is listed on our Walking with Jane Facebook page. You’ll also be able to bid at the Yard Sale.

Morgan Bozarth has donated this 9 inch square painting to be auctioned off for our Relay team effort. Bid now to own this original piece of art.

Relay by the numbers

My personal goal for Relay is $2,000 this year. As I write this, I need to raise another $710 to get there in the next two weeks. Our team goal is $15,000–and we are about $8,000 short of that. We need at least $1700 to match our total from last year. To get a fundraising level above the Platinum we hit last year, we need $3,000.

Two weeks? With your help, we can get there.

There are obstacles between us and our Relay goals. Help us overcome them.
