as many people as possible.

> It would be wonderful if 1999 were the year cure for breast cancer was

>raise $16 million by buying a book of stamps is powerful! As you may be
>aware, the U.S. Postal Service recently released its new "Fund the Cure"
>stamp to help fund breast cancer research. The stamp was designed by Ethel
>Kessler of Bethesda, Maryland. It is important that we take a stand against
>this disease that kills and maims so many of our mothers, sisters, friends.
>Instead of the normal $.33 for a stamp, this one costs $.40.
>
> The additional $.07 will go to breast cancer research. A "normal" book
costs
>$6.60. This one is only $8.00. It takes a few minutes in line at the Post
>Office and means so much. If all the stamps are sold, it will raise an
>additional $16,000,000 for this vital research! Just as important as the
>money is our support. What a statement it would make if the stamp out sold
>the lottery this week. What a statement it would make that we care. I urge
>each of you to do two things TODAY:
>
>1. Go out and purchase some of these stamps.
>
>2. E-mail y our friends to do the same. Many of us know women and their
>families whose lives are turned upside-down by breast cancer. It takes so
>little to do so much in this drive.

>Please help! Thanks!
