The other day I received an email from the Lymphatic Research Foundation about the national walk they are hosting to raise awareness (and money!) for lymphedema and lymphatic diseases. It sounds like a wonderful opportunity, and although I can’t make it, I knew that some of you would be interested in participating.

I made a virtual fundraising page for the Lymphie Life, which you can see here. My goal is to raise $2,500 for LRF, and with your help, I think we can do it. Please, please, click the link and donate if you can! Even $5 can make a difference.

The following is text from the email with details about the national walk and how to get involved:

TEXAS – SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 2011

Mayor Arena at Loy Lake Park, Denison, TX

NEW YORK – SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 2011
