Default Breast Cancer - Please Help

Please Help my Company help the Susan G. Komen For the Cure foundation.
I am proud of my company for stepping up and helping a good cause.

We are donating $0.10 per click (up to $40,000) to the foundation. Please help me make sure my company gives the full $40K. Go to our home page, http://www.saia.com/v2/default.aspx , and click on the pink truck right at the top of the page.

a small effort can end up to be a BIG contribution!

It is going to spend a week here in Boise, right around the middle of December. I will to try and get some pictures.

here is an exert about Susan G. Komen Foundation:

The federal government donates $900 million to breast cancer research compared to $30 million in 1982.

Breast cancer survivors account for the largest percentage of cancer survivors in the U.S.

To date, they’ve invested $1 billion in research, education and health services. They promise to invest and additional $2 billion over the next decade.

Up for you!

My mother, mother-in-law, grandma(passed on from other causes), and several women on my wife's side are all breast cancer survivors.

Here's some of the women in my family at this year's Walk/Race for the Cure.

Mother-in-law(top left with pink hat, wife to right of her), My mom(bottom right in pink shirt). Wife's aunt(above my mom in pink hat just found out hers returned after a 6 year recovery )
