This year we are celebrating 15 years and, because of donors like you, we are very fortunate to be able to continue to serve this community. I am asking for your support of the Mother's Day Cancer Canal Walk to help keep Mary's Room running and maintain an inventory of wigs and turbans while providing dignity and choice to many suffering from cancer. Further, your generosity will help educate Niagara County and surrounding areas on the importance of breast cancer awareness, self-examination and mammograms as well as support local breast cancer research.
Please consider a tax-deductible donation to this year's event. Several sponsorship opportunities are available. In return for your generous gift your logo/name will be put on the MDBCCW t-shirt (which are given to each volunteer and participant). Please see the enclosed card for additional benefits associated with sponsorship. The deadline for sponsorship is February 28, 2011. Please make your donation payable to the MOTHER'S DAY BREAST CANCER CANAL WALK and send the enclosed sponsor form and donation to:
MOTHER’S DAY BREAST CANCER CANAL WALK Please know that your support is truly appreciated and will make a difference to many. I look forward to your prompt response as planning is well under way. Please feel free to contact me at 434-9123.
P.S. We are also looking for donations of Chinese auction and "goodie” bag items.
With heartfelt sincerity,

Did you know that Mary's Room provides over 1,000 wigs per year to local women undergoing treatment for cancer? I had a woman write me to say "Mary's Room was a wonderful, warm place where I picked out a wig very much like my own hair." This is exactly the reason my sister Mary (who passed away in 1998 of breast cancer) founded the Wig Room, renamed Mary's Room.
