Race for the Cure - September 16, 2001, Portland, OR
Pledge Donation Program
 

 
A perfect 10! Help us reach our 10th anniversary goal of raising $100 per participant by asking 10 people for just $10. That could result in $4 million in funds for eradicating breast cancer as a life-threatening disease. $100 can also provide one potentially life-saving mammogram for someone in our community. Use the tips below and the pledge form to get started. If you are a part of a team, you may raise pledge donations for your team and still qualify to receive an individual fundraising award.

Your registration for the Race helps in part to further our mission but we encourage you to raise additional pledge donations.  You are encouraged to seek support from friends, family members and colleagues as you help fight breast cancer.  It’s easier than you think.  When you seek pledges from others, you are providing them with an opportunity to do something wonderful by supporting you as well as individuals currently affected by breast cancer and those that may never have to be.  Click here for a sample letter that’s guaranteed to raise money as well as for a list of proven-effective pledge-raising tips.

You can earn great prizes for your fundraising efforts! 
At the 2000 Race, Grand Prize winner and Top Fundraiser Brenda Treacy raised more than $22,000 and drove off with a two-year lease on a brand new Ford truck!  Barbara Pasmore, who raised over $10,000, received two round-trip airline tickets courtesy of American Airlines. 

The fundraising deadline is October 19th (postmarked), so you have plenty of time to collect and submit pledges even after the Race.
