American Cancer Society Relay for Life Event

Another reason Austin is cool. Even if it's happening in Round Rock. ;)

Just got this from a friend of mine:

Hey Everyone,

Harmoni and I are taking part in Relay for Life of Round Rock this weekend.

Relay is an overnight event designed to celebrate survivorship and raise money for research and programs of The American Cancer Society. During the event, teams of people will gather at Stony Point High School in Round Rock and take turns walking or running laps. Each team is to keep at least one team member on the track at all times. Teams are to also set up areas to hang out and raise money at the event. I might to do small drawings for a donation.

Also one of the reasons we're doing this is that Relay is the main event that brings in the most money for ACS every year. At work they're wanting 100% invovlement in Relay this year. ACS isn't doing as well as it should because of the economy. Harmoni's salary comes from donations. If we dont get enough donations the call center has to let people go. This has already happened to a small extent in my area of the company.

Please support us in this important cause by donating online using the links below. Harmoni and I have a goal of $100 each. All we're asking is for $5 donations.
