AHB Board Member at Large Mark Ripkey Running to fight Leukemia


Greetings fellow AHB members,

I have mentioned my efforts to support a great cause at a couple of meetings and wanted to get this email out as deadlines are fast approaching. Included is the website that makes it easy to donate as well as a place for me to blog about my progress. It has been a long and fulfilling effort.

As a reminder of what I am doing. I am raising funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) as a participant in their Team In Training program and I'm asking you to help by making a donation to my fundraising campaign. All monies go to LLS which supports cancer research and supports victims and their families. All donations are also tas dediuctible.

Donate online quickly and securely plus learn more about my progress. You will receive a confirmation of your donation by email and I will be notified as soon as you make your donation.

Each donation helps accelerate finding a cure for leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. More than 823,000 Americans are battling these blood cancers. I am hoping that my participation in Team In Training will help bring them hope and support.

On behalf of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, thank you very much for your support. I greatly appreciate your generosity.
