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!

Team Shawn Raffle

Team Shawn Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Fundraiser:
 
Please purchase raffle tickets -- and potentially win great prizes! -- to raise money to help those living with blood cancer and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.  
Our children's preschool teacher, Gloria Haines, lost her son, Shawn, to Leukemia 2 years ago when he was only 20 years old. Gloria is a dedicated, wonderful pre-k teacher who gives so much of herself to our kids. We, the parents of pre-k students at the Leesburg Presbyterian Church Preschool, have decided to hold a fundraiser for Team Shawn as our end-of-the-year gift to Gloria.  All proceeds will benefit Team Shawn.

Raffle tickets cost $5 each.  If you purchase 5 or more tickets you will receive a promotional coupon from a local business!  We will accept cash or check -- please make checks out to Team Shawn -- and your donation is tax deductible.  We can provide you with a donation receipt and tax ID number upon request. The raffle will be held at the preschool on May 16th at a private pre-k carnival held for graduating students. We will keep track of the winners and make sure that they are contacted by the end of that week.  You can also check the Team Shawn blog or Facebook page for winner information.

You may purchase tickets from the person who shared this flyer with you (he or she will provide you with raffle tickets shortly after your purchase), or you may purchase tickets from our preschool Director, Elaine, at Leesburg Presbyterian Church Preschool--207 W. Market Street, Leesburg, VA 20176.

These local businesses have generously donated $25, $50 and $100 gift cards, or services or items worth even more, to the Team Shawn raffle!  We will have several more businesses donate prizes before the raffle drawing.

  1. I am here to tell you about a natural remedy that is
    guaranteed to make you wonder why your doctor didn't tell
    you about it. Then, on the other hand, it is pretty obvious
    why your doctor didn't, because that's not his job, is
    it? But, seriously, promise me you won't get too angry
    with your health practitioner, it's really not their
    fault. They can only practice what they're told to
    practice, right?
    When your health is at risk there's no time for Tom
    foolery, you've got to get down to the cause and nip it
