All -- this is a great opportunity to give back to the community and help out some less fortunate people.
Quick program overview:
Through a *tax deductible* cash donation (minimum of $50) or Mileage Plus mile donation (7,500 minimum) to the American Cancer society, United will arrange for a teddy bear to be delivered to a child undergoing treatment for cancer in one of the participating hospitals across the country. One bear will be donated for each contribution of $50, which can be made by credit card on the website below. Donations will be accepted until December 31, 2009.
The 2009 class is holding a competition to see who can get the most bears, the winner gets to deliver a bear to a child in Chicago along with the rest of the Untied team. Please help me win (and do something good at the same time)!
