Hi Highland Park Neighbor,

Maybe you’ve seen me running around the neighborhood on creaky knees. Without running for a worthwhile cause I could never have ditched a donut-based diet in order to train for a marathon, and raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) leukemia research and treatment. I’m writing to ask for your help in treating and curing blood cancers.  

With the help of many, including four Highland Park neighbors, I’ve raised $1400 with $2600 to go at http://pages.teamintraining.org/wpa/rnrsa08/mstaresinic.

Donors have left messages like, “Double cancer survivor – five years!” “We're so thankful that our mother and our friend are FIVE YEARS FREE of lymphoma!” The LLS has helped more kids than ever survive leukemia.

The LLS has suggested donation levels -- $55 for a week of low-grade chemo, $115 for blood transfusion. Of course, anything is welcome! It’s easy to give: mail or drop off a check made out to LLS in an envelope inside our screen door at 5800 Elgin Street. I will batch and forward it on October 20, and the LLS will send an acknowledgement.  Or click to donate on my Team-in-Training page, http://pages.teamintraining.org/wpa/rnrsa08/mstaresinic.

THANKS for your help in defeating blood cancers!

Your neighbor,

Mike
