starting late, but hoping to finish strong...

(apologies to those of you seeing this twice)


Yeah, it's that time of year again, when I hit people up for donations to the Revlon Run/Walk for Cancer Research.

Most of you know the drill: I walk the miles, you cough up the dough. Here's the site. Make me proud. Every dollar goes directly to the research -- NONE of it to administration costs, so even a $5 pledge can make a difference.

If you'd prefer not to pay by credit card, you can also send a check to me directly, made out to the Revlon Run/Walk.

On behalf of those in need, and those who may someday sit in their doctor's office and ask "why me?" -- thanks. And yes, you should feel free to pass the URL along to anyone with $5 or $25 or $500 burning a hole in their wallet...

Done & Done! Good luck, m'dear!

Where does the money go to? Does the Revlon Co. have researchers on their payroll or do they send the money to various places? And is it tax deductible?

[lagilman]

Revlon merely fronts the administrative costs, along with a few other sponsors (NYTimes, etc) for the Entertainment Industry Foundation and their Womens Cancer Research Fund -- http://www.eifoundation.org/national/wcrf/about/index.html

And yeah, totally deductible.
