Loveall Foundation Kilimanjaro Challenge: Donations to the "second power"

The Loveall Foundation Kilimanjaro Challenge:

Climbing for the Children
Sometimes in life we confront challenges that seem insurmountable, like climbing a 19,340-foot mountain or curing a devastating disease. But history tells us that even the most daunting challenges can be successfully met if you dedicate yourself and focus on your goal.

Beginning New Year’s Day 2010 we will ascend Mt. Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak. On January 6 we plan to stand on her summit. A half a century ago, a diagnosis of Leukemia was a death sentence, but thanks to the work of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, the five-year survival rate for people with leukemia has nearly quadrupled.

With your support we can climb the tallest mountains together and help relieve the suffering of kids. One hundred percent of your contributions to the Loveall Foundation Kilimanjaro Challenge will go to the Leukemia Society, earmarked to benefit children battling leukemia.

Anything can be accomplished with enough planning, perseverance and effort.

Thank you for accepting ‘The Challenge.’

Onward and upward!

In the midst of his chemo treatments, David Timko, of the Leukemia Society, took the time to congratulate us on our efforts and pledged his support for the Kilimanjaro Challenge.

David, you will be in our thoughts with every step we take on this climb. You are an inspiration to those who know you.

Donations to the "second power"

Wednesday, December 16, 2009

Good news! Now your support of the Kilimanjaro Challenge can go twice as far!

An anonymous friend of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society will match $100,000 in donations made by Dec. 31 to support an important research focus — reducing the long-term and late effects of some of today's intensive leukemia treatments.

Please take advantage of this challenge and double the impact of your sponsorship. Whatever you give will go twice as far!

Any and all support for our efforts to help children battling leukemia will be deeply appreciated.

Thank you for accepting "The Challenge."

Onward and upward!
