Welcome!

I’m starting my third year as a participant of the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. Avon has taken over in the production of this event and I will be walking a marathon and a half - 39.3 miles - over two days!

During the last two years I’ve walked every inch of every mile and raised over $5,000! As I embark on my third walk, I’m asking you for a lot, I know. Many of you have been previous donors. Times are difficult, but it will take a lot from each of us if we’re ever going to find answers to difficult problems like this. My goal for this year is to raise a total of $3,000 in sponsorship pledges.

I hope you’ll consider supporting me in this ongoing commitment with your tax-deductible donation. Your contribution, together with contributions from thousands of others, will have a serious impact on the fight against breast cancer. No contribution is too small to show your support! Every dollar helps. I am depending on the generosity of friends and strangers to help me reach and maybe even exceed my pledge goal. I'm hoping that I can count on you to be part of my support team.

You can make a donation to my fundraising campaign by visiting my Avon walk page at www.avonwalk.org and click on “Support a walker/crew member” and choose Washington, DC, enter Tracy Downard, and click on "Make a Gift." You can even choose to spread out your donation in monthly payments. Checks can be made payable to Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. Please return donations by April 15th.

I want to thank you for your continued support and without gracious people like you, I wouldn’t have raised the money or awareness to fight this disease.
Thanks for your time and support!
