Brick


We've officially earned our brick! I got a letter in the mail stating that we have, in fact, already met the criteria.

Our team brick will read:

TEAM HUNGRY FOR LIFE
IN LOVING MEMORY OF
DENNIS M. RICH JR.


We will have a permanent spot in the healing garden at NSMC. It's all for you, Den!

Wow!

Total raised this year for The North Shore Medical Center Development Office:

$341,496.35!

More Incentive

The magnificent new Cancer Center (that we raised over $10K for) is presenting a new opportunity for walkers, donors, Cancer WALK teams and Cancer WALK corporate sponsors alike. This new opportunity is for Team HFL to be recognized on a brick that will be installed in the Cancer Center healing garden.

(Situated next to the wetlands overlooking the Waters River, this garden is visible from inside the glass-walled infusion bays and accessible outside for strolling, quiet meditation and contemplation.)

Healing Garden bricks will be available in recognition of Cancer WALK contributions received from 2008 to 2010, according to the following criteria during this three year span:

· Individual walkers/donors - $3,000 total or $1,000 per year
· WALK teams - $15,000 total or $5,000 per year
· Corporate sponsorships - $15,000 total or $5,000 per year

*You may have participated in the 2008 WALK and be well on your way to meeting these criteria!

They are hoping this opportunity will inspire walkers and teams to reach these thresholds~ raising even more funds for the new Cancer Center and at the same time providing permanent recognition for a loved one at the new Mass General/North Shore Cancer Center.

That means that after the 2010 WALK, Team Hungry For Life will have earned a brick in the healing garden. Pretty great!
