I would love to include all of my friends and family in this special event. I absolutely love the YSC. I have found great joy in serving the YOUNG SURVIVORS in our area. We have 10 young women in Cedar City with breast cancer. There are thousands more in the United States. Help us reach out to them. With this program, we are able to help others, just like me. Your donation is 100% tax deductible and 100% amazing!! Thank You.

Dear Family and Friends:
April of 2012, I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. I was 34 years old, a mother to four young children. I went through chemotherapy, radiation and bilateral mastectomies. I have found support and education through the Young Survival Coalition, a non-profit organization. This year I have decided to make a very personal commitment. In October of this year, I will be participating in a special event, the YSC Tour de Pink. On October 17, I will join hundreds of other cyclists as we ride 220 miles to support young women with breast cancer.
Young Survival Coalition (YSC) is the premier global organization dedicated to the critical issues unique to young women who are diagnosed with breast cancer. YSC offers resources, connections and outreach so women feel supported, empowered and hopeful. With an interactive website and almost 30 affiliates across the United States, it is YSC’s goal that no young woman should be left to fight breast cancer alone. The funds raised by YSC Tour de Pink will help them focus on education and outreach opportunities and provide peer-to-peer support for newly diagnosed young women.
I have committed to raising $2,500 to participate in this ride, but my team has set a goal of raising $7,500.00 by October 17, 2014. I’m asking you to make a commitment, too. Can I count on your support?
Please consider making a fully tax-deductible donation to help me achieve this goal. I hope that you'll share this incredible adventure with me by supporting me in my fundraising efforts. You can make a donation online at my fundraising page: http://www. ysctourdepink.org/goto/ robynbrown, or use the attached pledge form to mail in your donation directly to YSC.
YSC Tour de Pink is more than a cycling event. I ride to honor survivors, raise awareness in the community and support important programs for young women with breast cancer. I am also riding to teach my own children that no matter the challenge we are faced with, it is important to never give up on goals. Please help me help this important cause.
Thank you, in advance, for your support.
Sincerely,
Robyn Brown, Utah Young Survival Coalition Leader
