BRIEF: Donate $5 and help design 'Race for the Cure' T-shirtOct 10, 2009 (The Sacramento Bee - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- The Susan G. Komen "Race for the Cure," the annual Mother's Day 5K race to support breast--cancer research, is known for its colorful T--shirts awarded to participants. In a new twist, the public is able to vote on the shirt's design, raising even more money for the nonprofit organization. Now through Nov. 8, those logging on to komen.org/raceshirt can vote on the design online for a $5 donation. The design that garners the most donations will be used for the 2010 Komen "Race for the Cure," which last May drew 20,000 participants in Sacramento. Registration for the race, scheduled for May 8, begins in February. To see more of The Sacramento Bee, or to subscribe to the newspaper, go to http://www.sacbee.com/.
