Breast Cancer Stash Sale
In November, I will be walking the Breast Cancer 3-Day in San Diego. This is the 3rd year I’ll be participating. In 2005, I walked 60 miles in Tampa, Florida. In 2006, I volunteered to work the walker camp in Boston and spent four days setting up and taking down camp, collecting trash at meals, and keeping walkers from passing out in hot tents after they finished walking for the day. It’s a big commitment. Not only of time and physical endurance, but also in fundraising. One of the ways I’m raising funds this year is by having a stash sale, so you can help!
The Rules:
If you want something listed below, send me an e-mail message telling me which lot number(s) you want and your zip code so I can estimate shipping costs (I plan to ship Priority from 02474). If you are the first person to respond for a lot/item, it’s yours!
I’ll reply telling you if it’s yours and giving you a total including shipping costs. Then you will go to my Donation Page and make a tax-deductible for that amount. The donation page accepts credit cards, debit cards, or electronic checks from U.S. checking accounts. When you get the confirmation e-mail for your donation, forward it to me. Then I will mail your package!
That’s right, you don’t send me money, you just make donations! And no one will be upset if you donate extra!
Please note that I have a non-smoking home with a resident feline.
There’s a lot of gems, keep scrolling down!
