Send the message below to your friends and family to ask them to donate to your fundraising page for the Butterfly Walk & 5K!

Hello!

This year, I am participating in the CancerFree KIDS’ Butterfly Walk & 5K and I am hoping that you will join me in my efforts. On May 21st, I will join over 1,000 other CancerFree KIDS supporters to further their mission of funding life-saving childhood cancer research in honor of all kids who have, are currently or will one day battle cancer.

Pediatric cancer research receives just 4% of all funding from the National Cancer Institute, and it shows. Many treatments for childhood cancer are outdated and can even be harmful to kids. Through CancerFree KIDS, I am trying to change this by raising funds for research that has the promise to provide new, gentler and more effective treatments and cures for our smallest fighters. I am truly grateful if you are able to make a contribution to my fundraising page in support of this mission.

If you are able to donate, please visit Butterflywalk.org and click the “Donate” button. At the top of the donation page you are directed to, please type my name in the text box that says "Search fundraisers and teams." If you are more comfortable sending a check, please make checks payable to CancerFree KIDS and write my name on the memo line to credit my team and me with your donation. Send to 420 W. Loveland Ave. Loveland, OH 45140.

Thank you in advance for supporting me in funding life-saving childhood cancer research!
