Hello hello! Well this past week has been a pretty successful one if I must say so myself. Last Saturday, October 16, 2010 I participated in the annual "Walk for Life" event held by the Santa Clarita Valley Pregnancy Center, which promoted pro-life and helping those faced with a crisis pregnancy to "see the light at the end of the tunnel." Secondly, just last night, October 23, 2010 I had the privilege of also walking in the annual "Light the Night" event, established by the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Both were held in Valencia, Calif. and both walks were about 2 miles in distance. I really enjoyed doing both events and meeting new people with the same interests in spreading awareness for these causes. I encourage all of you to look into some local walking events like these that represent a certain cause that you might be interested in spreading awareness for.
For more information on either organizations or info on their future events visit

cancer, those who have defeated cancer, and those who have lost a loved one to cancer. |
