Complete the Cure

A close friend of mine recently sent me this link in an email. Her son Toby has Leukemia and this program helps raise funds for Pediatric Cancer Research. He was diagnosed at the tender age of 3 and is nearing the end of treatment. There is so little we can do to help besides offer our friendship and support, but this site has a great way to help fund new research.
September has been designated as Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. HopeKids is proud to announce they are commemorating this month by partnering with Children’s Cancer Research Fund in an interactive web campaign titled CompleteTheCure. The goal of the campaign is to bring awareness to the childhood cancer experience — the progress and the challenges. CompleteTheCure.com will feature six short video clips about childhood cancer. For each video clip viewed, a corporate sponsor will make a donation in support of pediatric cancer research. The more times the videos are viewed, the more funds that will be raised to help advance promising childhood cancer research. You can visit CompletetheCure.com, watch the videos and watch the money add up that will go to research. A couple of ideas to help spread the word: Post the website and information at bottom of every September journal entry so everyone visiting your blog site sees it and visits the CompleteTheCure.com. The more people that watch the videos the more awareness we can create about the importance of childhood cancer research and the more money we raise.

Thanks for your help every little bit helps.
