Walk to End Breast Cancer - Support the CalgaryMoms Team!

On July 28-30, Calgary Moms will have 4 AWESOME members that will be participating in the Walk to End Breast Cancer. Over the course of two days, Julie, Wendy, Tamara & Danielle will be walking 60 KMs around the City of Calgary.

Their Mandate is to raise funds going towards breast cancer awareness, research & treatment for all women affected or that will be affected with this disease.

Did you know that 1 in 9 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer? For example, if I did my math correctly, that means that 111 members on this site will be or have been diagnosed with breast cancer. That number is too high and in most cases, these women will be diagnosed too late.

Our goal is to raise $6000 before the weekend and they are currently at $1800, which means they have a long ways to go! That is why, we need YOUR support! To donate Click Here for more info!

If you are not a Premier Member and wish to donate: The most convenient way to do this is to go online to the website, www.endcancer.ca . Select the Calgary icon, this will bring you to the cancer home page. Then select, Donate . You can find us by typing in our team name Das Boob. Unfortunately, you cant make a donation directly to the team, so you’ll have to pick one of the team members to make your pledge. Thank you for your support.

They have several unique ways to raise the funds. Very cute jewelry.. Pink Ribbon necklaces, key chains, and even a toe ring! They even got Coco Brooks to get in on the fund raising! Want a YUMMY pizza?? Click here!
