Can you belive it? I am training for a full 26.2 mile marathon—my first one. I’m doing it with the Washington/Alaska chapter of Team in Training (www.teamintraining.org) to raise money for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). I have committed to raising $3,600 to support The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in its battle against leukemia (the number one cause of death in children ages 1-14). I have been so fortunate in my life to be healthy, and I feel it is time for me to help others who are not so fortunate.

Please help me! I’m asking all my friends to contribute whatever they can--$5, $10, $20, whatever! It all adds up. Look in your wallet right now & see what you can spare—then put it in an envelope & mail it to me. And I promise the next time I see you I’ll buy you a beer!

Send your donation to:
Barbara Decker
13406 44th Ave West
Mukilteo, WA 98275
(if you write a check, make it out to LLS)

Your generous contribution will go to fund the research being done to find a cure for this disease. Please join me in spirit by contributing whatever you can—it all adds up! All donations are 100% tax deductible! If you write a check, just make it out to LLS. Either way, you’ll receive a thank you note back from the org which can be your tax receipt.

The marathon is June 1—Please send your donation ASAP so I can be sure it counts in my total. Many Thanks!
