Hello All,
The only donations I will contribute to at this stage in my life is The Oral Cancer Foundation!!!! This website has helped more people that can be measured. Brian & Ingrid have given there lifes to maintaining this site and helping others. Most of the funds needed have come from them. I feel we have made a small dent in making people aware of "EARLY DETECTION SAVES LIFE'S" and I am member number #853 and we just went over #2500 members this week.
I think (know) we can do more! I'm asking for more volunteers for the "2006 Oral Cancer Foundation Fundraiser.
I have received several offers to help and I thank you for that. If you want to give something back to a forum each of us have taken so much from please contact me by email or PM. Lets make 2006 a banner year for donations to "The Oral Cancer Foundation" It is a tax deductable
donation.
All you have to do is get ONE
donation a month from anyone. Remember when you were first DX and so many friends and relatives offered any kind of help you needed. A good time to call in that marker.
I will send you 15 brochures and
donation envelopes in November or early December. The brochures are very informative and they should be directed to the website to see why it means so much to you. The fundraiser will last the entire year. The most success when asking for a
donation is face to face. A great time to tell them about the website. Any donations should be mailed during the first week of every month. This will insure the website receives a more balanced cash flow for the entire year.
I was aiming for a $50.00
donation per member per month, but thats just a target number. You can send in more or less depending on your ability to collect a
donation.
No one is going to be held accountable for the results they contribute. There will be no pins, bumper stickers etc sent out. I want to keep the overhead to a bare minimum. The best gift in the world is the one you expect nothing in return.
A receipt from you with a hand written thank you note means more than we know. The receipts will arrive with the
donation envelopes and brochures.
The intent of this fundraiser is to remove the heavy burden that Brian & Ingrid experience every month. The bonus in all this is that Brian will receive a somewhat balanced amount of donations to coninue to spread the word,
"EARLY DETECTION SAVES LIFE'S". Never send cash, If you receive cash please send in check form.
Hoping for many emails with your mailing address in it so we can get the ball rolling.
Love Ya All, Danny Boy
