June 21, 2008
Sara (Atkinson) Trela '00 and the Lehigh Club of the Pacific NW

"The Puget Sound Race for the Cure was held Saturday, June 21 in Seattle. Over $1.6 million was raised and will be used to fund education, screening and treatment programs for the medicallly underserved in Western Washington and to support the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Award and Research Grant Program.  Sandy Stelling '91 and her husband, Cliff, participated in the 5K run.  My husband John and I enjoyed the 5K walk along the Alaskan Way Viaduct.  Kathryn Mahaney '01 participated in fundraising.  The team raised $545, and Boeing donated $300 for John, Cliff and me.  The Puget Sound Lehigh Alumni received a donation from a fellow Lehigh alumna, Mary Beth Hyder '80, who lives in Atlanta, and who was inspired to donate to support her fellow Lehigh alumni."

Lehigh Valley Walk Now for Autism

April 12, 2008
Sue Meyers '08P

"Despite early worries about the weather, our walk took place under a beautiful blue sky. More than 7,000 people came together at Lehigh Parkway and raised a grand total of over $427,000 so far! Our own Williams Team fundraising goal of $3,000 was exceeded by $35!  It was a heartwarming experience, and we were very touched by the generosity of our supporters."
