Did you know that somewhere around the world, a woman dies every 68 seconds because of breast cancer?? I'm currently participating in the Susan G. Komen Global Race for the Cure to help promote the awareness of breast cancer and to hopefully raise enough money to help save lives. Breast cancer currently has the largest group of cancer survivors in the U.S., over 2.5 million, and that is a true testament to the power of this movement!
This has been such a wonderful experience for me to be involved in and my team and I are also planning on baking a TON of pink cupcakes to sell for the cause and all those proceeds will go towards our Susan G. Komen breast cancer fund. So far we have earned $425, but our ultimate goal is $3,000! Every penny counts towards this fight and we would be forever grateful for your generosity. Just think about all the lives that could be saved if every person donated $1! If you are interested in donating, please click on the Susan G. Komen link below and it will take you to my page. You can also follow our twitter page at: Sleeping Sweets Twitter Page
Thank you so much for reading!

Kudos to you for doing this. We support breast cancer research too since my mother-in-law and aunt are survivors.
Thank you so much and that is SO great to hear! :)
It's great that you are supporting the Race for the Cure. I lost a dear friend to breast cancer.
I am a Team Captain for the Relay for Life, American Cancer Society, which is June 24th. I am a 15 yr melanoma survivor, and my brother is going thru his 3rd round of cancer for a rare form of Leukemia. We have to find a cure for all types of cancer. I am hoping to have an online bake sale the beginning of May.
Thank you SOO much Becky for your generous donation, I am so grateful! That is such a blessing to hear you are a survivor and I'm praying for your brother's recovery as well. Best of luck with your bake sale!! :)
