Beer for Boobs is back! On November 22, 2009, a team of amazing women will take off to walk 60 miles over the course of 3 days around beautiful San Diego … again! This is part of the fantastic event called the Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk, which benefits the Susan G. Komen Foundation and the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund. 

Last year, Beer for Boobs made its grand debut on the San Diego 3-Day and what a debut it was! Due to our sponsors’ generous donations, our team of 8 was able to raise over $26,000! This contributed to the $11.2 MILLION that the San Diego event raised for breast cancer research.

But why stop now? Without a cure, one in eight women in the U.S. will continue to be diagnosed with breast cancer. Boobs everywhere still need our help!  Beer for Boobs has already reached 11 team members – some familiar faces and some new ones ready for this fun challenge. Yet we cannot achieve our goals without your help!

We hope you will consider donating to our team by sponsoring our fashionable Beer for Boobs T-shirts. These special shirts will be worn by the team members while we go on our training walks, during our beer drinking training, during the walk itself, and at our fundraising events.  We will also have the shirts for sale to the public with all proceeds going to Susan G. Komen Foundation. We would appreciate receiving all the logos and names for the shirts ASAP!

If you cannot sponsor the t-shirts, another option to support our team would be to host a Beer for Boobs night. You can donate a portion of each pint sold and we can supply you with Beer for Boobs logo glasses and T-shirts for giveaway!  

Lastly, you can also donate to our team online at www.The3Day.org. Just follow the “Donate Now” link to search for Beer for Boobs, which will take you to our team webpage. From there, you can donate to any of the team members listed. If you don’t want to donate online, please download and print a donation form and mail it to the address on the form. Or you can even call 800.996.3DAY to donate over the phone.

Please sponsor us today! We would love to promote your company on our shirts while also shattering our fundraising record from last year!! So act like a good ‘bra’ and support the boobs!!

Sincerely,

Stefanie Wacker
