DC Shoes & Skateboarding for Cancer
by Kimberly Rice

  Thanks to a tip from Mary a couple weeks ago, I discovered a really cool organization that raises money for cancer patients.  Having lost loved ones to this terrible disease, raising money for cancer patients is very near and dear to my heart.  Unfortunately, it seems like almost everyone I know has lost someone to cancer and that is why I think it’s incredibly important to find an organization that suites you…

I have decided to only choose 10 a day because if not, I would be surfing Twitter all day!! Wow-choosing a winner yesterday was even tougher…
