Friends & Family:
I wanted to say thanks for your generous support of me as I paddled in Kayak for a Cure (KFAC) to raise money for cancer research. With your help, we surpassed our goal of $300. THANK YOU!
It was an amazing day in Vancouver. In total, KFAC had 75 paddlers and countless volunteers raise $37,000+ for the Canadian Cancer Society. Of the four years of the event, this year was a record-setting day in Vancouver. We heard some amazing stories of paddlers who were currently fighting cancer, in remission, and had friends and loved ones who lost their lives to the disease.
One that stands out is the story here: www.fatherandotter.com. The mother and daughter paddled a hand-made kayak with us that weekend. It was started by the father/husband who passed away to cancer in the middle of building it. The mother and daughter finished it in time to be part of the event. Amazing!
Kayak For A Cure is growing, with similar events in Columbus, OH; San Francisco, CA; Victoria, BC and Mississiauga, Ontario – and more cities are signing on for 2010. It’s my friend’s dream to have a KFAC event in every state to “Make Cancer History.”
Best Wishes,
Andy
