Relay for Life 2012 - Help our team fight cancer!

June 22nd is a special night, as it is the beginning of a wonderful event in St. Catharines, called The Relay for Life. This event is an overnight fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society, where teams in our local area join together to participate in a 12 hour walkathon.

This year (and the past 3 years) I have organized a team to participate. Our team is sponsored by Ukrainian Credit Union. Our logo is a “kozak” and the team name is “Kicking Cancer Butt”. The kozak symbolizes the fight and determination to eradicate cancer. Our team will wear costumes to resemble kozaks, and we are all eager to participate.

If you would like to make a donation to this cause it would be greatly appreciated. No amount is too small - every dollar makes a difference. Donations can be made online (www.relayforlife.ca - go to "team name" and select: Kicking Cancer Butt), or if you prefer you can make your donation to a UCU account which has been set up specifically for RELAY donations (please add a note to the deposit- stating your name and address - this is required to provide a tax reciept for donations of $20 or more). The number is:

527084-202
Relay4Life 2012- Donations

I would like to extend my thanks to everyone who has participated in this cause, and to all who are able to make a donation.
