Kare for Kristi...
Our organization (Kare for Kristi) is dedicated to helping a 27 year-old wife and mother named Kristi Roberts. Kristi has been diagnosed with 4th stage melanoma. She has undergone surgery to remove a mole deemed to be cancerous. The cancer had spread to the lymph nodes in her right groin and she had surgery to remove those as well. Kristi is now undergoing interferon therapy.
Because of her surgeries and treatments, the doctors have ordered that Kristi not work. Most of her sick leave was used when she had her daughter, so she has already used what little she has left. Her medical bills are piling up while her husband is struggling to bring home enough money to cover their house payment and other bills, as well as buy diapers and wipes for their 18 month old daughter.
In an effort to relieve some of the financial stresses, we have put together a fundraiser for Kristi. On Sunday August 3rd, 2008 from 2-5pm we have put together an event in which several vendors will take part. In the Heritage Room located in the Shriver Center on Miami’s campus in Oxford, Ohio, shoppers will be able to visit tables that feature items from Mary Kay, Tupperware, Pampered Chef, Premier Jewelry, Home Interior Thirty One, and more. These vendors have pledged to donate 15-40% of their profits to Kristi and her family. We will also hold a raffle with items from Avon, Ramsey Photography, You’re Fired, Autozone, Brown’s
Marketplace, and more. A bake sale will be going on as well.
Please come and shop ‘til you drop and help out this mother and wife! Your support is greatly appreciated! If you have any questions, or would like to donate raffle items, call Deidra at 765-580-2257.

FIT to FIGHT...
For Immediate Release
June 15, 2008
Contact: Elyse Jarard
Cell phone: (513) 368-9319
Email: elysej@venus4her.com
“F.I.T. to Fight” Benefits Ovarian Cancer Research
Two “thirty-something” friends dying from ovarian cancer inspired Elyse Jarard to organize a fundraising benefit to create more awareness about the disease. “Fit to Fight Ovarian Cancer Triathlon Festival is dedicated to the fighting spirit of the women who have died from this deadly disease. This year it takes place on Sunday, July 13, 2008 at Corwin Nixon Park/Mason Community Center, in Mason, Ohio. The event presenters are Venus Fitness for Her in Montgomery, and the Warren County Convention and Visitors Bureau. Those not wanting to participate can make a monetary donation online. Registration for the event, and donations can all be made at www.fittofightoc.com. Proceeds will benefit the Barrett Cancer Center at the University of Cincinnati, Cancer Family Cares, and the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky chapter of the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) to provide much needed funding for research, support, and awareness.
Ovarian cancer is the deadliest of all gynecological cancers. If caught early, survival is as high as 90%, but women are not aware of the disease’s symptoms, or are quick to attribute them to “something else.” “Consequently, when diagnosis does occur, it is already too late for 75% of patients,” states Jarard, a Kenwood resident.
The triathlon festival is an event to involve the whole family. Encompassing three separate events, “everyone in the family can participate,” says Jarard. The events consist of a women’s only triathlon, a men’s only triathlon (the only one of its kind), and a kid’s distance triathlon. Participants can choose to race individually or as a relay team. The event is a good opportunity to empower all family members, especially those who have been touched by ovarian cancer. It gives each member a chance to do something powerful in support of their loved one. “I chose a fitness format for this event to highlight the importance of exercise for good health, and its ability to empower women” states Jarard, who is a personal trainer and owner of Venus Fitness for Her, a fitness studio for women and girls located in Montgomery. “We women are naturally intuitive about our bodies, but our society tends to dismiss generalized ‘feelings’ in favor of hard evidence when it comes to diagnosing and treating disease. Ovarian cancer’s symptoms are vague and can be attributed to other, benign conditions, so it is often overlooked until it is too late.” Abdominal bloating, pelvic pain, pressure or “feeling full,” and gastrointestinal problems are among the most common ovarian cancer’s symptoms.
For more information, to register or to make a donation, visit the event’s website, www.fittofightoc.com, www.hfp.com, or call Elyse Jarard at (513) 984-4437.
