you're assuming this is the sole way when it's likely simply one of
many exhaustive ways all in effort to saturate. it's free, they
probably hit up craigs list and all the other free relavent forums and
i call it leaving no stone unturned.
you might want to look into attending another school. plus, what fun
is it being a smartass to a good cause championed by the well intended?

i would argue that perhaps the OP should have been more inclusive and ask
for help from her "Bruthas" too as Breast Cancer is a disease that effects
everyone in one way or another.

I wasn't knocking the cause but knocking the method of reaching people,
yeah it "only
cost'em some key strokes and you never know what comes back when you
send out signals." but still are they realy going about it the best
way? Based on my marketing classes from school no.

runsrealfast & Kaz,
the OP is searching high & low and putting out a clarion call to & for
a local/regional good thing. if they reached 1 person, it only
cost'em some key strokes and you never know what comes back when you
send out signals. both of you should consider yourself fortunate to
not have to come face to face w/the cause at hand w/people in your
lives. if you want to rip on the ng, rip on someone who can fight
back, like me.

As much as I like to bust on my pal Lance, I have to agree with him. The
race for the cause is a worthy effort for cancer.

Definitely. I'll be running (well, run-walking) in the 1-mile event in
the Phoenix Komen Race on 8th.

Either a black woman, a white woman who think's she's a black woman, or
a friend or acquaintance of a white woman who thinks she's a black
woman.

Thank you. I'm a white male who thinks he's white. My black neighbors
treat me like I'm one of the gang. One lady keeps asking if I want some
brown sugar even though she knows I don't bake. I don't know if she
thinks she's white or she thinks I'm black. Maybe I even have a sistah.
WTF ???

From some of the comments I gather that some of those reading this don't
know the significance of wearing pink. It's not about appearing
feminine or like a girly man; at least in the Susan G. Komen Race for
the Cure that I've been in, it was the custom to wear pink (especially
ribbons and caps) if you've beaten breast cancer (and men get it too,
don't forget).
And it is a big deal. My mother and most of her sisters died from it
long before there was early diagnosis or effective treatment.
