31 chestie besties!!

THANK YOU!!! we have 31 cbs. 31 of our friends and family are going to be walking together to help put an end to breast cancer. amazing!!

melissa and i have a team meeting this week so i am sure we will have plenty of information to pass along.

in the mean time, i have a tip that has brought in some $$$$. add a link to your donation page in the footer of your email. it's a constant, subtle reminder to those who have not donated or signed up to walk. if you are using your work email, be sure to check with your employer first regarding their policy.

ladies, check your boobs.

more soon from a VERY proud chestie bestie.

Chestie Besties are on FIRE!

Thank you to everyone who has joined so far! We are so excited to have you on the Chestie Besties. I have to say that Highland Village/Flower Mound/Lantana is representin'! Where are you Denton Besties??? We are a quarter of the way there on our member goal! Let's keep it up!!!

I just wanted to brag that my kids, Jack & Emma updated their personal profiles on the Komen-Dallas site so go check out those incredibly adorable children!

Thank you, Elise, for organizing the team and for pushing us all to meet new goals and become involved!

We should have golf tournament information up soon and I heard a rumor that Jaret & Erik might be holding an acoustic show to raise funds...Bowling for Boobies! (Coined by Bestie Raychel!)

Happy trails!

cheers - m

fundraising tip: change!

there is no doubt that the economy, price of gas and groceries have affected our wallets. you have heard it before but every little bit REALLY does make a difference.

a great way to make some money is to collect change. ask your favorite stores if you can put up a jar to collect change. you will be surprised how many places are willing to allow you to put up a collection jar and how many people will throw in their change.

be sure to let people know what you are raising money for with decorations and other eye-catching items.

good luck!
