“I’ll do the pedalling for all of us!”: A message from Amelia Robinson, longtime friend of Irked Magazine
Written by admin2 on May 27th, 2009Filed under: Campaign Watch
Hi Friends,
This July some friends and I will be participating in a two-day cycling event called The Ride to Conquer Cancer benefiting the Jewish General Hospital.
We’ll be cycling from Montréal to Québec City with thousands of other Riders. All the proceeds will go to the Jewish General Hospital to support cancer research, treatment, and services. The Jewish General Hospital is a comprehensive institution devoted to cancer research and care.
I’ve agreed to raise at least $2,500 and I am writing to you all now because I need your help to do that. Could you please consider making a donation and/or forwarding this information on to anyone in your contact list you think may be interested in sponsoring me? Use the link at the bottom of this message to go visit my webpage, and please take the time to support me.
If you like statistics:
According to the National Cancer Institute of Canada, over 153,100 new cases of cancer and 70,400 deaths from cancer were estimated to occur in 2006. Men outnumber women for new cases by 5% and mortality by 11%.
I hope that you’ll share this adventure with me by supporting me in my fundraising efforts.
Thank you in advance for your generosity!
Sincerely,
Amelia Robinson
