Food for Thought
How much of your own food do you produce?
Where would you go to get food if all the stores were closed?

11% DOWN - 89% to GO!!!
As you know I am participating in the Ride to Conquer Cancer on June 20-21, riding 200km from Vancouver to Seattle to raise funds for the BC Cancer Foundation & the BC Cancer Agency.
I have committed to raising $2,500, but have set my personal goal at $3,000.
So far I am at 11% or $315 and still have a long way to go.
This is where I ask you to step in. If even for $10, every penny counts. I will ensure that you receive a tax receipt and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me at erintravis@hotmail.com
Thanks in advance for your support and I will keep you posted on my progress.

I need your HELP!! Support Me in the Ride to Conquer Cancer
Well HELLO THERE,
Lets get straight to the point ... I need your CASH!!!
Ya, ya, I know its hard times and everyone is tightening the purse strings, but frankly, I don't care.
And now that I've gotten your attention I'll tell you why:
On June 20 - 21, I'll be participating in a two-day major cycling event called The Ride to Conquer Cancer benefiting BC Cancer Foundation.
I'll be cycling from Vancouver to Seattle with thousands of other Riders. All the proceeds will go to BC Cancer Foundation to support cancer research, treatment, and services. BC Cancer Foundation is a leading comprehensive institution devoted to cancer research and care, and the work they're doing is cutting-edge.
I've agreed to raise at least $2,500, but I've set my personal goal to $3,000. So here's where you come in, because I need your help to do that. Could you please consider making a donation of $100? Use the link at the bottom of this email to go visit my webpage, and please take the time to support me. Please keep in mind the commitment I'm making to end this heartbreaking disease and the personal efforts I'll have to make to accomplish this.
When I say "heartbreaking," here's what I mean: 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%. That's why I'm riding. To do something BIG about cancer. I hope that you'll share this incredible adventure with me by supporting me in my fundraising efforts.
Thank you in advance for your generosity!
