FROM DANNY

Hi everyone,
I want to tell you how touched and grateful I am for the outpouring of support you have given me, the Betty Wood Foundation and Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Thousands of you purchased the NKOTB pink ribbon tank tops, t-shirts, and I’ve heard that you’re hosting fundraising events and organizing walk teams all over the world. I just want to say thank you to EVERYONE who is volunteering their time to help end breast cancer forever. I appreciate everything you’re doing, and the people at Susan G. Komen for the Cure really appreciate it as well. Every dime we raise from this effort will go directly to Komen, and we’re setting up a link right now that will allow you to make your donations directly to Komen through my site, in memory of my mother. We’ll post the link on rememberbetty.org, on Facebook and on Komen’s site as soon as it’s ready.

I also want to remind you to do your breast self-exams, get a mammogram when it’s time and to just take care of yourselves. 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime, but 98% of those women will beat it if they are diagnosed early. I promise you that I will keep fighting to help create a world without breast cancer, a world where my fans can be proud of the great things we are accomplishing together and most importantly, a world where my daughters will grow up without fear of losing their lives to this awful disease. LET’S FIND A CURE TOGETHER!

Love Always
Danny
