I have been promoting my "Run For Ellenor" fundraiser at work - my little sign is beginning to draw attention. (The sign says "Please ask Eric about his marathon fundraiser.") There have been a number of recent additions to the Honor Roll - many thanks!
Since I emailed friends on July 6 I have received word of 20 donations in Ellenor's name to either the American Cancer Society or the Leukemia & Lymphoma Soceity. I estimate this represents $820. (7 people gave directly to the ACS and didn't tell me how much they gave; I estimated $25 each).
ReplyDeleteI just did some quick analysis of the contributors. 7 are former work colleagues (some from 20 years ago), 3 are people I currently work with at Health Care Service Corp (Blue Cross Blue Shield), 3 are family, and 6 are friends. 6 of the people I have infrequent contact with; it was especially gratifying to hear from these folks.
