Hello, My name is HOPE


Two of my grandmothers had breast cancer.
Both survived it.
Not all women do.

There are many different ways that you can show support for Breast Cancer Research.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
My hometown newspaper prints on pink paper October 1st.
Two of the big buildings in Atlanta (known as the King and Queen) light up Pink for the month...
You can participate in a breast cancer walk....

But how many of you know about Quill and their facebook campaign?

Everyone goes on facebook for all sorts of things...
Will you take a minute to help out?
Just head on over to the Quill campaign and make a "My name is ... " sticker...
For every sticker shared, Quill.com will donate $1 - up to $20,000 - to City of Hope, a National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer center dedicated to research, treatment and education.


Please head on over and make one (or more) today!!!!




Thanks Quill!!!!

    I don't know anyone who had breast cancer but my husband battled cancer while we were dating. It's so ridiculous what you go through... I will definitely be doing this. Thank you. :)
