Relay For Life



Stacey, one of my best friends back home, works for the American Cancer Society and has always been passionate about the Relay For Life. She actually lost her dad to cancer this last year and that has not stopped her desire to help search for a cure for this crazy disease. She contacted me last week and asked if I'd be interested in making bracelets for her team to sell as a fund raiser. Each bead represents a different kind of cancer. I love the idea and went to town on it so I thought I'd share what we came up with and offer you a chance to pre-order one! They will be $20 and will come with a business card size list of what each color represents. They are 7 1/2 inches and on stretchy string, we can easily make them bigger or smaller if you want. You can contact her by email at stacey.dutton@cancer.org to place your order (you'll have to cut and paste it because I don't know how to link it). All of the proceeds go directly to the American Cancer Society/Relay For Life. This is just a test run so they may change somewhat from this design but you get the picture. If you'd like to pay by PayPal, let her know that too and we will set that up. Thanks everybody!
