Chris and I volunteered at Denver's Race for the Cure today, which fundraises for breast cancer awareness and education through the Susan G. Koman Foundation. Zeta Tau Alpha is a co-sponsor of the event because our national philanthropy is the Susan G. Koman Foundation. We worked at the back sign tables and helped participants fill out "In Memory of" or "In Celebration of" signs to pin to the backs of their shirts. It was emotional at times because many were participating in memory of moms, sisters, wives, and loved ones. Last year 64,000 participated, numbers for this year have not yet been announced. Seeing so many people come together for such an incredible cause really put life into perspective today. Also, having my husband there by my side helping out was so great. Oh how I love him so much!
We showed up to help at 5:30 am, it was sooo cold!
A sea of beautiful roses for a sea of beautiful women!
