Team In Training
The 25th of August, 2007
To Whom It May Concern,
Hello, my name is Chanelle Alessiandra Beecher, and I have decided to train with the Rhode Island Chapter of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society for a marathon in January, 2008. I will be running the Walt Disney Marathon, held on January 13th. I will be provided a coach, a training regimen, nutritional advice, as well as a wealth of information which will offer me a promising result in Florida this winter. Besides the challenges of training for the 26.2 miles, I have accepted an oath to raise at least $4000 to support research concerning cures for blood cancers under the title of The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Leukemia and lymphomas are the leading fatal cancers in young men and women under age 35. Among children ages 1-14, leukemia claims more lives in the United States over any other disease. These statistics portray the urgency of a collective effort to find a cure.
I am writing to ask you to support me in my quest by contributing as generously as you can to the Leukemia Society on my behalf. Your contribution will fund the research taking place to find a cure for all cancers. Significant progress has been made in the treatment of this disease, and with a common interest of further remedies as well as action, we can all work together towards saving current and future patients who have been and will be cursed with this malady. I appreciate anything you can offer, and I am certain that together, we may make a lasting change for the betterment of our world. Thank you for your cooperation,
Chanelle A Beecher
