Greetings, 
 
Summer is fading, Autumn is upon us.  It’s time to reengage for this year's March for Independence-The Walk for Opportunity.  This year our goal is to raise
at least one million dollars.  It will take our collective energy, action, and imagination to meet this goal.  I encourage all of you that have yet to
register for this year's event to do so now.  If you are a returning participant or if you are signing up for the first time, you will find instructions on
how to register following this 
e-mail.  We will be announcing an assortment of bonuses for those of you who are registered, raising money, and making your goals early, so sign up now
and start raising your funds.  
 
Once you are registered for the 2008 March for Independence - The Walk for Opportunity, you can begin personalizing your Web page and sending out e-mails
to your contacts, colleagues, family, and friends.  
 
Please pass this message and the registration instructions far and wide.  We would like to see one thousand registered and raising by November 1, 2007. 
Together, we can do this.
 
If you have any questions please contact me at
