This photo was taken on 10/15/08. This is the whole office with the exception of 3 agents and one of the original Broker/Owners. RE/MAX was part of Pink for the Cure and everyone from the office donates to this cause. The link below takes you to a website that you just click on and by doing so you can donate a mammogram.

I'm asking anybody who sees this does this. A click could save someone's life because of YOU!

Powerful I'd say. God Bless you all.

Your click on the "Click Here to Give - it's FREE" button helps fund free mammograms for women in need low-income, inner-city and minority women whose awareness of breast cancer and opportunity for help is often limited. Your click is paid for by site sponsors, and mammogram funding is provided to clinics throughout the U.S. through the efforts of the National Breast Cancer Foundation .

Early Detection: Do You Know The Facts?

The National Breast Cancer Foundation estimates that each year, over 200,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and over 40,000 die. One woman in eight either has or will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. Approximately 1,700 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 450 will die each year.

If detected early, the five-year survival rate for breast cancer exceeds 96%. Mammograms are among the best early detection methods, yet 13 million U.S. women 40 years of age or older have never had a mammogram.

The National Cancer Institute and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommend that women in their forties and older have mammograms every one to two years. A complete early detection plan also includes regular clinical breast examinations by a trained medical professional. Monthly breast self-exams are suggested in addition

Ditto multiple clicker on this site too Pat. I've got to create this multiple clicker site where someone sends me money. Then I'll just sit back, write blogs, and ask for virtual dollars to be converted to real dollars and sent to me. How cool. Seriously, great cause Pat.

OK you two(Gary and William), are you both on the same wave again? 4 minutes apart I see. VERY COOL! I love it. You two are dreamers if you think that virtual dollar thing will work but if you ever find a way "sign me up". I spend a lot of time here anyways. I might as well get paid the BIG BUCKS for it.  You two guys are so awesome. Thank you so much my friends. As you can tell Gary I didn't go to bed yet. Nice thought.  I've been here since I got home but I was on such an amazing discovery trip today that I'll be sharing soon but sleep is really calling, as well as knowing I have homework that needs to be done by Sunday. Not to mention housework and other assorted not so fun stuff but necessary nonetheless and can forget selling houses. I hope it's OK that you two are sharing this comment. I just want to say this to William. Glad you're back safe and I'm so glad you posted that letter from 30 yrs ago. I will be posting a blog about my RE/MAX history shortly.

Hi Christina-It is very close to my heart because I'm a 5 yr(next June)breast cancer survivor myself and the lady in the pic 2nd row from the bottom(light pink shirt w/ pink ribbon)is a more recent breast cancer survivor. I'm lucky to still be here and am thankful everyday that I am.
