'You have breast cancer'

Those are terrifying words no woman should ever have to fear. But once said, women and their families begin to wonder, 'Will I live?', 'What's Next?'.

I don't think there is anyone who doesn't know someone who has battled this terrible disease. I'm asking for your help in raising funds because I think it's important that we all join together to help win this battle.

And I desperately need your help.

On February 26, I'll be running alongside 250 other passionate people in the 'Strides for Steph' 5K run/walk during the Buckeye Cruise for Cancer Research.

My personal goal is to give the Stephanie Spielman fund a check for $5,000. It's a big number in a short amount of time, but it's doable. I'm asking - begging - everyone I know to help with a donation.

I'm asking our vendors, our staff AND YOU to please send us a donation. I know times are tough for many folks. I get that. But as the saying goes, many hands make for light work. 

 I'm not asking you to help do anything we as a company aren't doing. I believe so passionately that The Basement Doctor is donating - straight up giving - a basement finishing package worth over $40,000 to the Buckeye Cruise to be auctioned to the highest bidder during the cruise. We're giving it all away, material, labor, everything.

All our auction monies are going to the Stephanie Spielman Fund at The James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute who do their important work here in Columbus.   

Donations can be made online via a PayPal link at MyBasementDoctor.com or mailed into: The Basement Doctor, % Strides for Steph, 13659 E Main St Reynoldsburg, OH 43068.
