Breast Cancer Research Stamp
ALRIGHT WOMEN/MEN, Lets do this !!!!!! :-) We need those of
you who are great at forwarding information to your e-mail
network. Please read and pass this on.
It would be wonderful if 2003 were the year a cure for breast cancer
was found!!!! This is one e-mail you should be glad to pass on. The
notion that we could raise $35 million by buying a book of stamps is
powerful!
As you may be aware, the US Postal Service recently released its new
"Fund the Cure" stamp to help fund breast cancer research. The
stamp was designed by Ethel Kessler of Bethesda, Maryland. It is
important that we take a stand against this disease that
affects so many of our Mothers, Sisters and Friends.
Instead of the normal 37 cents for a stamp, this one costs 40 cents.
The additional 3 cents will go to breast cancer research. A "normal"
book costs $7.40. This one is only $8.00. It takes a few minutes in line
at the Post Office and means so much. If all stamps are sold, it will
raise an additional $35,000,000 for this vital research.
Just as important as the money is our support. What a statement it
would make if the stamp outsold the lottery this week. What a
statement it would make that we care. I would urge you to do two
things TODAY:
1. Go out and purchase some of these stamps.
2. E-mail your friends to do the same. We all know women and their
families whose lives are turned upside-down by breast cancer. It
takes so little to do so much in this drive. I think we can all afford the
additional 60 cents that a book of this stamp costs.
Please help & pass this on.
