Project Hercules

30-Day Exercise Challenge

September 1-30, 2011


Dear, Friend:

On September 1, 2011, I will participate in a 30-day Exercise Challenge to raise money


and awareness for ovarian cancer research through Project Hercules. ​Each year in the
United States, more than 21,000 women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer and about 15,000
women die of the disease. ​By making a pledge on my behalf, you are supporting important
research that will one day help eradicate this silent disease.

My goal is to raise $____ this month. I will exercise at least 20 minutes for at
least____days in the month of September and I ask that you sponsor me by pledging a
certain amount for each day I complete my goal. Your donation is not only tax
deductible, but 100% of those dollars will support the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund,
the largest independent organization in the United states dedicated exclusively to
funding ovarian cancer research and to finding a cure.

Making a pledge has never been easier!

You can:

• Mail your pledge directly to me at: ____________________________________

• Send your pledge through firstgiving.com, making sure you have put my name in the
memo:

Thank you,

About Project Hercules:

Project Hercules is a 12-month fundraising event designed to raise money and awareness for ovarian
cancer. Each year in the United States, more than 21,000 women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer
and about 15,000 women die of the disease. Now, my dear friend and warrior, Maya Salomon, is
currently fighting this battle.

Through Project Hercules, I aim to show just one ounce of her courage by tackling 12 projects, one
each month, ending in June on Maya's 40th birthday. Ranging from modest to mountainous, I
welcome you all to join in as many activities as you want. Let's challenge ourselves and, in turn, raise
money and awareness to help eradicate this terrible disease. All proceeds to benefit the Ovarian
Cancer Research Fund.
