BeeWell Miles for Breast Cancer

There are so many ways to help for a cause. People donated money for all types of charity. But this time we do not need to spend a penny in order to help for who are suffering from breast cancer. BeeWell Miles will do it for us. All we need to do is to stay fit and healthy.

When I read about the BeeWell Miles from Bumble Bee foods, I told myself, “Why not?” I was already starting to do all those walks without any charitable cause– the main goal is to be healthy and loss weight. BeeWell Miles will donate 15 cents for every mile to Breast Cancer Network of Strength from April 1, 2009 to October 31, 2009 (up to $200,000 donations). You can start the program by logging in your miles in the website’s activity tool. You will also discover the calories you burn. Explore the BeeWell Miles for complete details and information.

Hubby and I are walking 3 mile walk per day routine and monthly hiking and camping activity but now we do it for a cause. I can't wait for you to join us.
