Raising Money for Pediatric Cancer

Playing kickball to raise money for research may be a new concept but KICK IT is a program of FLASHES OF HOPE, a national non-profit established in 2001. Flashes of Hope changes the way children with cancer see themselves through the gift of photography. With chapters across the country, Flashes of Hope will reach 5000 children with cancer this year alone; this represents more than 40% of the children diagnosed with cancer in the United States. I was able to take part in Flashes of Hope as a volunteer photographer in 2008. This experience left me humbled and inspired.

Please join me on Sunday, May 2, 2010 for an afternoon of teamwork, laughter, exercise, drink, sunshine, compassion, charity, and fun taking part in a friendly game of kickball. 100% of all proceeds raised will go directly to pediatric, adolescent, and young adult cancer research!

There is a $10 buy in the play the game and teams will be designated. If you cannot attend please think about donating to this great cause. I hope to see you there!
