TODAY IS THE DAY!!!! Let's honor Gordy's legacy - consider copying and pasting this post on your social channels encouraging people to make a difference! Remember to include your personal fundraising link!

"I've been challenged to raise $43 to fight cancer today! Who can help me out? Donate as little or as much as you can.
Got some fun ideas, donate:
1. The amount of change in the bottom of your purse
2. The coins loose in your car (cupholder, etc)
3. The amount of your morning coffee order
4. What you'd pay to have lunch out today
5. A dollar for everyone in your life affected by cancer
If you donate over $10, you get a luminaria to support, honor, or remember someone! "

Greetings new Relay Family from your new ACS Staff Partner (this was recorded pre-spring break - but I was unable to get it out to you before I left.) I hope you had a marvelous Easter weekend and that us Mid-West friends have some sunshine in our near future. It was definitely hard to leave Sunny and 75 degree Florida and come back to 30 degrees and rain last night lol. I look forward to getting to know so many of you! Have a great week ahead.
