Dear Readers:
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. We need to make more funding for breast cancer research a priority. One in eight women will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. The Bay Area has the highest incidence of breast cancer in the country. We need to be outraged.
Please write a letter to the president of the United States. A simple message will do: "We demand more funding for breast cancer research. Today.
Now." Then, put a breast cancer stamp on it. An added "bonus".
There is a breast cancer letter writing campaign going on the AOL breast cancer board.
Send your letters to : J. Walsh
300 Broadway, B22
Dobbs Ferry, NY 10522
She will make sure your letter gets to the President. She will make sure that the media makes note of the tons of letters.
Spread the word. It matters. Let's help our sisters and each other. I know we can make a difference.
Thank you for your anticipated support.
