My personal message:

Dear friends,

Just wanted to say thanks for all your very generous donations. I'll be writing each of you personally, but for now I want you to know how wonderful this makes me feel, and what a great thing you have done. You guys are the best.

Love,

P.S.: Don't forget about the massage offer below!

Dear Friends, Thanks for checking out my fundraising page here. Please give whatever you feel comfortable with...IF you feel comfortable with it. Thanks for helping out. The walk is September 28. Kevin, a.k.a., East Coast Kev

Hey gang, a new offer from my friend Helen Eisenbach:

For further incentive to give to a great cause, I'd like to offer an acupressure massage session in exchange for your donation of $100 or more. Acupressure is a gentle but powerful method of helping the body heal itself, effective for specific injuries and issues of well-being like insomnia, stress, appetite and depression. Here's what one recipient had to say about what the experience:

"I had the sensation of floating, falling very slowly through a magically-cushioned realm. When it ended, I felt lighter and utterly refreshed. Helen removed layers and layers of stress, unlocking places where I'd been storing old injuries and lots of tension. Days later I still felt the effects of her really remarkable session. It was tremendous!"

--Charles MacKay, Director, Santa Fe Opera

Got that, kids? Massages, for $100 more! Think about it! And many thanks to Helen...
