Ok, here's the particulars of how to contribute to the Zooke Breast Cancer Research Memorial Fund:
1. Visit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation's Website at http://www.bcrfcure.org/sup_howyoucan.html ( which is the "How to donate page." )
2. Decide what method you want to use to donate. As far as I know at this point, they accept personal checks and international money orders, in addition to all the usual methods of donating: credit cards ( not sure about debit cards ), USPS money orders, etc.
3. To make sure that they know your contribution is in Sandy's ( Zooke's ) memory, write "In memory of Zooke" on your check or money order, or just tell them if you make your donation by phone.
NOTE: "When you make a donation online, after filling out your information on the first screen, you will have the opportunity to make a donation in memory or in honor of a loved one, and you will be able to request that we send an acknowledgment of this gift to whomever you designate." [ From their Website ]
Do NOT request that an acknowledgement of your gift be sent to anyone on NS, including me! The Breast Cancer Research Foundation has graciously agreed to compile a total and let us know what it is.
If you have questions/problems you can either let me know or call them direct, toll-free at 1-866-FIND-A-CURE (346-3228). For those who live outside the US, just let me know and I'll ask them.
Please keep in mind that all contributions are welcome, that this is a very worthy and important cause, and that any contributions we make will be in loving memory of a very wonderful woman. Our little contribution could be enough to put some researcher on the right track to beat this terrible disease.
