A Letter from Ann Warren Shumacher

I'm writing today to ask for your help and continued support.  Kevin and I have joined a wonderful group of women (yes, Kevin is an honorary woman) in the the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer 3 Day.  It's a 60 mile walk in 3 days.  In order to walk, I need to raise AT LEAST $2,200.00. Our team - the Warrior Women - has a goal of $60,000.00.  The money goes to the most wonderful foundation that provides support, research, and education.

If you are interested, you may go to the actual website and donate directly to my personal account.  The website is www.the3day.org.  Click on "donate,” choose "Seattle," then enter my Name:  Anna Schumacher.  You should be able to donate from there and receive info in regards to tax deduction forms.  If you have any problems or questions you can call the organization directly at (800) 996-3DAY.

If you'd like to donate to me directly, you may make the check out to "The Breast Cancer 3 Day".  My address is Anna Schumacher, 1100 Queen Anne Ave., Apt. 406, Seattle, WA 98109.

All my love

Anna
