Team Donovan

It is time to start our fundraising efforts.

Please join, donate, and fundraise with Team Donovan for the American Cancer Society.

The 2009 Beach Cities Relay for Life raised over $165,000. Team Donovan contributed over $20,000. In seven years we have raised $240,000 for the American Cancer Society as Team Donovan. Four of the Top 10 fundraisers are members of Team Donovan. Our “Las Vegas” theme was a big hit. As usual, our shirts were the talk of the entire event. However, the team slipped to third overall. We will need to redeem ourselves next year. All in all, the event was another success!

Congratulations to the entire team! Thank you for your continued support! Thank you for your donations!

As some of you may already know, I’ve entered a new chapter in my life and I am  now a proud mother and wife.  I never imagined this is where I would be but despite of all the blessings, I continue to face this dreadful “C” word – yes, Cancer…it continues to be around us all!  I want you to know that with the help of our Team Donovan Committee, we continue to fight this fight, stay dedicated, and remember Kevin and all of those we lost or have been affected by this disease. Someday there will be a cure and we can’t do this without your continued support!!!  Our theme this year is “Vegas, Baby” but this time, whatever happens in relay, doesn’t stay in Relay! So let’s spread this fight to find a cure!

We are now officially only 5 DAYS AWAY from this year’s event and I continue to urge you to make a difference!  Remember, everything counts and no effort or donation is too small. We know how rough times are right now but like I said nothing is too small!

How can you continue to help:

• Register on the Relay For Life site and help raise funds by donating and getting your friends and family to donate
• Even if you’re not attending, you can still support by donating
• We have e-bay stuff we just posted with all the cool sports memorabilia.
• Donate food or drinks for the event, contact Jen or me
• Donate merchandise for the general store or get us in touch if you know someone who can donate, contact Jen or me

For those of you who are attending, some things to know:

• NEW LOCATION: Lincoln Elementary School in Redondo Beach
• There will be games being held by ACS so check our the agenda that is also on our site.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Jen Tardiff  or you can contact me as well.

All my best to all of you and I can’t wait to see you guys.  Now let’s kick some cancer butts!
