Nancy Lipira's running to find a cure for Leukemia -- and YOU CAN HELP!

On June 23 2008, Nancy will be running in the Alaska Marathon for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. How can you help? Nancy will be at the pool Sunday April 13, 2008, Monday morning in the gym, or Tuesday morning April 15th lap swim.

A $20 donation gets you a raffle ticket for (1st prize -$1000, 2nd prize $300 and 3rd prize $200) and, more importantly, makes you a hero for helping save lives. So get down to the Y on Sunday, Monday or Tuesday and let free that moth-eaten twenty! In doing so you will be supporting the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s mission: to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease, & myeloma and to improve the quality of life of patients and their families.
