The Kindness of Friends and the Generosity of Strangers

This fundraising is difficult. I never realized how hard it would be to raise money, even for a cause that is so important and a foundation that has a very high profile. Yet, I am happy to do it and it warms my heart when I receive donations from friends, telling me that they are proud of what I have accomplished and want to contribute on my behalf.

I am so moved, though, by donations that I have received from people I do not even know, wanting to help, simply because they believe in the cause and believe in me...just a girl who has fought a battle and so far won. This gives me a lot of hope. There are good people out there and I am proud to say that they have touched my life, if even in a simple and intangible way. It means a lot.

Thank you.
