WHY WE WALK!


Team Shawn was started in 2007 after our oldest son Shawn was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma at the age of 20. After nearly a two year battle, Shawn ultimately lost the fight. We are here to be advocates on behalf of Shawn and all those who lost their lives fighting blood cancers.

This blog follows Team Shawn and their 2011/2012 fund raising efforts. All proceeds raised will go to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's "LIGHT THE NIGHT WALK" at the Reston Town Center in Reston, VA for research and family support. For the past two years, Team Shawn raised a lofty goal of $10,000. We are reaching for the sky this year again! Our goal is to raise another $10,000 for this event! Yes, folks---$10,000! We have many ways to reach this lofty goal. We will reach it and more!!! Along the way we hope to have lots of fun and make new friends as well!

Walk With Us!
Saturday, October 20, 2012. Reston Town Center (11919 A Freedom Center, Reston, VA). Walk Distance: 2.8 miles. Festivities begin at 5 p.m., Walk begins at 7 p.m.

Cool Jewelry & Fight Cancer!

Gloria will be hosting a Lia Sophia jewelry show at her house as a fundraiser for Team Shawn and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. There will be 8 raffles held and all the proceeds from the raffle go directly to Team Shawn and you get a chance to win free or significantly reduced price jewelry. If you're not a jewelry person...no worries...Gloria is not either, and there is absolutely no pressure to purchase jewelry, but please come and join us for food, fun, and girl time. Daughters are also welcome as Colleen will be here too and would enjoy some girls.

Got spare change? We will have a donation box set out if you would like to make a donation directly to Team Shawn and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society without entering a raffle.

Thank you everyone and Gloria hopes to see you on April 17th at 2:00 p.m.
