Some of you may know I’m in a little friendly competition called The Blogger’s Choice Awards. I’ve got a few blogs that were nominated, but there’s one blog in particular that I’d like to see win, and that’s my charity blog, 3DayMom. I’m going to be at the awards show, and I sure would like to win one in person. And, I’d hope that by winning, I could get a little more attention for my cause, which is the Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk. I’m walking for the 2nd time this year, and I’ve raised $1600 so far. ($600 to go!)
Now, perhaps you are not sure how walking helps breast cancer. Well, the $2200 that I raise, along with all of the money from the other walkers goes to the Susan G. Komen foundation to fund research and outreach programs. It pays for mammograms for women who can’t afford the cost. It makes people aware of the risks, and makes sure that people know early detection is the key to being a survivor. I walk to raise awareness, and last year, the walkers in Philadelphia (where I participated) raised over $6 million dollars for the cause.
You do need to register to vote, but please consider doing so to help me out. If you can’t afford to donate, or simply don’t want to part with $20, this is the next best thing you can do to help me out. When you register, just return to the ‘best charity’ blog category and vote for 3DayMom here:
