LANCE ARMSTRONG FOUNDATION: LiveStrong

Welcome to my LiveStrong lens! I hope you will find this handcrafted lens a unique and useful resource for your 2008 LiveStrong Challenge events and fundraising experience. I have two goals with this Squidoo lens:

First, Provide YOU with unique, useful and updated information on the amazing Lance Armstrong Foundation, the many Livestrong events, information on what other runners, walkers and cyclists are doing and unique ways to energize your fundraising, motivate your team & inspire yourself! Re: Custom Buttons | Buttons of Hope - Putting a face on fundraising | North Carolina

Second, I'd like to introduce myself and Buttons of Hope
for your consideration. I started Buttons of Hope to give people like you a way to personalize your cause. Rather than just scribbling a name on the back of your t-shirt or jersey -- now you can easily create your own custom photo button to honor a loved one or support a friend. Imagine if everyone wore a button with the smiling face of a loved one, a survivor WOW! [more on Buttons of Hope and me below

"The Lance Armstrong Foundation (LAF) unites people to fight cancer, believing that unity is strength, knowledge is power and attitude is everything. We take aim at the gap between what is known and what is done to prevent death and suffering due to cancer..."

So grab a cup of coffee & take a look around and while you're here check out Buttons of Hope and consider making a custom photo button to wear in support of a loved one at a 2008 LiveStrong Challenge Event!
