Courtesy of my amazing fundraising campaign manager Amanda, there are now rewards for donating:
"$25 – Moriah [Amanda's daughter, neuroblastoma in remission for six years] will pick out a temporary tattoo for you and mail it to you in a thank you note.
$50 – If you live locally [in Pennsylvania], Moriah and I will make a batch of fudge or chocolate covered popcorn or homemade cinnamon rolls for you. [If you live in Richmond, I can deliver these for you.]
$50 – If you don’t live locally, you get a photo of fudge! Don’t worry, it’s redeemable for actual fudge when you come visit, or when I’ll see you next. Or I can ship it to you in an insulated shipping container. I may have to ask for help with shipping costs, though.
$50 - You're watching your weight, don't eat sweets, or are *gasp* allergic to chocolate or gluten? Or, you know, you live on the Other Coast and realize that shipping food is just a silly and risky idea. We've got you covered. Naomi will make you a 3 flower duct tape bouquet, with your choice of a wide array of colors and patterns.
$75 - Moriah can't let her sister one-up her when it comes to raising money for childhood cancer research. That would just be silly. If you donate $75, Moriah will make you a duct tape wallet! She may or may not let you choose the colors; it may well be that she decides to surprise you.
$100 – A commemorative etched pint glass with St. Baldrick’s name, the year, and the picture of Micah Edwards [me] with a mohawk and muttonchops. Fair warning, these are going to be a lot of work, and each glass is likely to take at least an hour. You may have to be patient to get yours, depending on how many people go for this."
Please support me with a donation to the St. Baldrick's Foundation. This volunteer-driven charity funds more in childhood cancer research grants than any organization except the U.S. government.
Your gift will give hope to infants, children, teens and young adults fighting childhood cancers. So when I ask for your support, I'm really asking you to support these kids. Thank you!
