The Ride to Conquer Cancer !!
A message from Amritpal Kapoor amkar3@hotmail.com
Hi,
On June 20 - 22, 2008, I'll be participating in a 2-day major
cycling event called The Ride to Conquer Cancer benefiting The
Princess Margaret, one of the top 5 cancer research hospitals in
the world.
I'll be cycling over 200 kilometers that weekend, from Toronto
to Niagara Falls, with thousands of other Riders. All the
proceeds will go to The Princess Margaret to support cancer
research, treatment, and services. The Princess Margaret is
Canada's leading comprehensive institution devoted to cancer
research and care, and the work they're doing is leading-edge.
I've agreed to raise at least $2,500, but I've set my personal
goal to $5000.00. So here's where you come in, because I need
your help to do that. Could you please consider making a
donation of $100? Use the link at the bottom of this email to go
visit my webpage, and please take the time to support me. Please
keep in mind the commitment I'm making to end this heartbreaking
disease and the personal efforts I'll have to make to accomplish
this.
When I say "heartbreaking," here's what I mean:
according to the National Cancer Institute of Canada, over
153,100 new cases of cancer and 70,400 deaths from cancer were
estimated to occur in 2006. Men outnumber women for new cases by
5% and mortality by 11%. That's why I'm riding. To do something
BIG about cancer. I hope that you'll share this incredible
adventure with me by supporting me in my fundraising efforts.
Thank you in advance for your generosity!
Sincerely,
Amrit
