Cancer Thriver Flotilla Countdown and Indiegogo

One of the great things about being a cancer Thriver is the number of friends (and even strangers) who are eager to be part of your team.

When I had chemo, delicious soups turned up at my door. Friends went with me to infusions. They took my son to school.

Now that I am feeling great, the friends (and strangers) are still there. I have witnessed this in recent days in the outpouring of support for the Cancer Thriver Flotilla -- the amazing journey we will take down the Anacostia and Potomac this weekend.

• Our Cancer Thriver Flotilla Indiegogo campaign is off and running, already exceeding our humble goal, thanks to 20 generous funders so far, with more every day. Please take a minute to check out the campaign, watch the video and consider making a donation to our fabulous beneficiaries. 
  
• We have about 10 people joining us at some stage of the Flotilla on the water, and another 20 or so helping as walkers, bikers, and volunteers (See our full schedule to get involved).
  



My reasons to Thrive!

• Cabot Cheese, Peeled Snacks, and Boating in DC have made wonderful generous in-kind contributions, so more of the money we raise can go to the causes, not to overhead. Thank you!

Speaking of causes, watch this space for more on the absolutely amazing and wonderful groups that will benefit from our Flotilla: Living Beyond Breast Cancer, BreastCancer.org, and GoPink!DC. Love you all.
