From the Drop It Team, Thank you!
Good afternoon,
With the 1st Annual DROP IT Challenge coming to a close, we would like to thank you all for your selflessness, discipline, hard work, and willingness to help raise money for such an incredible cause. You have impacted the lives of so many!
Cancer is hard enough on the families, parents, friends, and those battling it. Knowing that so many members of the law enforcement community were there to support them can give that extra sense of comfort and inspiration! Thank you all!
Please feel free to share with us your stories and before/after photos of your journey this past month. We know these stories will inspire others to follow your lead!
As you may already know, we have cancelled the car push due to low turnout and potential injury concerns. However, we will try for a similar event again at the end of next year's DROP IT Challenge. Suggestions are always welcome!
We will be presenting a check to Dana Farber on June 9th for the final amount raised.
When it comes to which team won the Challenge? Well, the answer to that is simple - the kids at Dana Farber! A special thank you to the top fundraisers- the 72nd ROC Plymouth Police Academy, Haverhill Police, the Methuen Police as well as all 41 Teams that joined the Drop It Challenge.
Thank you all for all your hard work and dedication to both improving your own health as well as raising funds for those who need it the most! You are an inspiration to so many!
Sincerely,
The DROP IT team
