Join the team, it's easy

With the blessings of Governor Bob, First Lady Suzie, and City of Hope Chair Maureen Moore, Linda Pugliese started the District 4-C6 Team for the City of Hope Walk for Hope to Cure Breast Cancer to be held in San Francisco on October 13, 2007. The object is to get as many people from District 4C6 to join the team and raise money to support breast cancer research, treatment and education.

The best way to do it is to go online, register as a team member, and your $30 registration fee will give you a personal web page that you can customize to suit you. You don't need to commit to walking long distances or raising large sums of money.

You can even do a "virtual walk" and still be a team member. Through City of Hope’s Virtual Walk program, individuals all across the country can participate in Walk for Hope without ever leaving their computer. When you become a Virtual Walker, you will be joining a community of online supporters who are saying yes to forever eradicating the disease.

• The more team members we get, the more we raise for City of Hope through District 4-C6
• The potential grows as more team members ask family and friends to donate through their personal web page to City of Hope

As of today's date, August 15, District 4-C6 is ranked third in the San Francisco area and two of our team members are in the top 5 fundraisers. The number one team became number one because of the sheer numbers of its team members. Let's make District 4-C6 No. 1!

You can become a part of a national movement to create a legacy of health for our daughters and generations to come. Walk with us!
