FUNDRAISING EVENT

CARWASH, everyone!!!

We'll be having a carwash this coming Sunday, the 12th.

It's 10AM-4PM at Sports Basement(1177 Kern Ave Sunnyvale, CA 94085)

We need your help!!!

We don't have enough people to wash cars.

I am an Aupair from Japan we are relatively new to the States and don't know too many people.

You don't have to come the whole time, (if you could, that'll be great!!)if you can come for 2 hours, that's great.

We'll have 6 slots for each of the follwing shifts.

1.10:00-12:00

2.12:00-2:00

3.2:00-4:00

If you could come for any of these shifts, that would be great!

And if you know someone that can, please let me know!

Also, if you have any extra towels, buckets, waterhoses that can be used for the carwash, please let me know!

I'm training for Nike Women's Half Marathon in San Francisco as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS) Team In Training. All of us on Team In Training are raising funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma from taking more lives. I am completing this event in honor of all individuals who are battling blood cancers. These people are the real heroes on our team, and we need your support to cross the ultimate finish line - a cure!

The picture(left to right: me, Asami, Bridget) is from a fundraising event that one of the teammates hosted. She had a poker night and I had mini-event there and chopped off 10 inches of my hair to donate!

Asami and I dressed in Yukata(Japanese symplified Kimono) and Bridget had her hairdresser come to cut my hair, so now I have a great new look!

My race is coming soon.

I'm getting a little nervous but I'm sure I'll have so much fun!

Please make a donation to support my participation in Team In Training and help advance LLS's mission.
