With one day left in this CureSearch campaign for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month please make a contribution today in honor of someone you know that is in the fight. A child, a doctor, a nurse, a parent, a friend, a neighbor, a family member, a camper, a marrow donor, a mentor... you can make a difference in the lives of the 12,500 children with cancer diagnosed each year.

Many of you have asked for more time to finish your own team efforts. We will keep the Virtual Walk site open until October 15th and report a grand total in mid October.

With one more day, make this a day to remember. Contribute $10, $20 or $50 today and help conquer childhood cancer.
