Local Women Walk 60 Miles for the Cure

By Tracey Hundorf

The 60-mile walk was incredibly inspiring! The three of us raised nearly $9,000 for the Susan G. Komen For the Cure Foundation with donations still coming in. The event was very well organized with tremendous support from the community. We felt like celebrities as we were cheered continuously along the route. It was definitely not an easy feat as the temperature was in the 90’s every day and the concrete was hard, but we made it. We finished right alongside many breast cancer survivors, women going through treatment, and 2800+ people who have been affected some way by this horrible disease. I was so impressed with how well the event was organized and the dedication from all the volunteers and walkers. I would highly recommend everybody experience this! The three of us are blessed to be healthy and able to complete this goal.

Local Red Cross Chapter Thanks The Kristan Cole Team

On November 2, 2007, Brooxie Robinson of The Kristan Cole Team  accepted an award on behalf of the team from the American Red Cross Matanuska Susitna Chapter.  The award was presented in appreciation of the team’s continued support of the local chapter and contributing to the effort to save lives together - Alaskan’s helping Alaskans. Many of these contributions come directly from The Kristan Cole Team’s Giving Back program, as the Red Cross is selected as the chosen charity to receive a monetary donation in lieu of a traditional closing gift.

Brooxie and fellow teammate Michael Padgett are both instrumental to the effort on a regular basis.  Brooxie donates whole blood approximately every 56 days, and Michael donates blood and plasma whenever the perimeters of the program permit.  It is through their personal efforts and donors across the entire Valley that makes saving lives possible.  For more information on how you can donate or offer support to our local American Red Cross Chapter, please call 357-6060.  Together we are making a difference!
