Dear Members of the Williams School Family:
As most of you know, I lost my mother Liz Kollmansperger to Ovarian Cancer in 2003. One year later, my siblings and
I embarked on a decades long journey in partnership with the community and Cancer Care Foundation of Tidewater to
honor my mothers memory and to raise awareness, education and support for patients battling cancer. Just Walk for Liz
has been exactly the type of event my mother would have lovedfun, grassroots and donut-friendly. So many of you
have supported this event since the beginning and some are just participating for the first time. To all of you I say aheartfelt thank you.
This year marks the 10th anniversary of Just Walk for Liz. I think my mother would have been very touched and proud ofour decade of support of cancer patients, right here in her own community. But even she would admit that all good things
must come to a natural end. Ten years feels like the natural ending to this wonderful journeyso this will be our 10th and
final walk.
On the occasion of the 10th anniversary and final year of Just Walk for Liz, we would like to ask your assistance in
raising $20,000 in donations and sponsorships to honor my mom s journeyand the journey of so many that battle cancer
each year. Reaching this goal would mean that we will have raised $100,000 in 10 years to support local cancer patients.A very fitting tribute indeed.
As you know, in all the years we have held the event, we have never charged more than $25 for walk registration. One
simple way you can assist us in reaching our fundraising goal would be to voluntarily raise the value of your walk
registration to $30, $50 or $100. Additionally, any donation you would like to make towards our goalwhether you are
participating in the walk or notis greatly appreciated. Corporate sponsorships of the event this year would be
wonderful as well. You can register or donate atwww.ccfot.org or call the Cancer Care Foundation office directly at461-8488.
Thank you to the entire Williams School family for your steadfast support and outstanding enthusiasm for Just Walk
for Liz. Letswalk one more time and finish strong!
Best,
Liza Kollmansperger Needham
