Quite impressive...
You must be 'putting the bite' on your whole town.


Well, not quite, but there are a lot of caring, compassionate people out
there. I feel good about it because it's one of the very few things I, as a
father of a daughter with breast cancer, can do. It puts a smile on her
face!

As of now, there've been 71 donors. The race is day after tomorrow. Sure
wish we could reach the goal by then.

I *was* surprised that more people didn't take me up on my offer to double
(or triple!) their donation!

If it's anything like here...there's always someone at the door...on the
phone, hanging around supermarket entrances with good causes looking for
money. Mom & dad used to give about $25.00 to each request. Next thing
you knew..hundreds of letters started showing up. A lot of charities
'sell' their donation lists to other charities. When I give...it's a
modest amount and I don't want receipts. The small tax savings aren't
worth the hounding.
