Okay, one of my oldest and dearest friends works for a doctors office in my hometown (in VA) and they have put together a group for Relay for Life for the American Cancer society. Part of their fundraising efforts include t-shirts they are having made. They are super cute - I will try to attach the picture - and for each shirt sold $4.65 goes to the cause. I told her I would see if I could generate some interest because I think they would be great to tie into our Help Whip Cancer program. I plan to buy one or two myself to wear to my shows in April (to generate leads) and in May to support our cause and again in the fall to get fundraiser shows for October. They are brown and pink and have the pink ribbon on them. The front says "Fight Like a Girl" and the back says "Win Like a Woman".

Here's the info - they have S,M,L XL in short sleeve $10, long sleeve $15 and hoodies for $30. And they have XXL and XXXL short sleeve for $12, long sleeve for $17 and hoodies for $32. I am willing to take orders for her if anyone is interested. I am asking for $4.50 shipping (unless you order several shirts and then it may be more but I think $4.50 will cover one or two t-shirts) and you can expect to receive them around April 1st - I will be traveling to Virginia and will pick them up and ship them all when I get back to New Jersey the last week of March.

You can mail me checks or pay through paypal. PM me if you would like to place an order - or if you have a great idea for how to use them to tie into our campaign. I want to help out her group and us if possible.

Thanks for looking!
