Subject: Your Generosity is Saving Lives—Thank You

Dear <First_Name>,

From the depths of my heart, thank you.

Your generous gift you shared today with The BE SEEN Foundation, Inc. (EIN: 93-3373190) is more than a donation—it's a declaration. It's a beacon of hope for countless individuals who, like me, might otherwise go unheard and unseen.

My own diagnosis of Stage 3b Rectal Cancer came after years of being dismissed. By the time I was finally seen, I was nearly out of time. That’s why BE SEEN exists—to change that reality for others.

Your support empowers us to increase awareness, drive access to early detection, and build a bold new future for people at increased risk. But it’s not just about saving lives—it’s about helping survivors live again. Together, we’re building a community where people who’ve experienced early onset colorectal cancer can redefine their identities—not as patients, but as whole, powerful people who are alive. Feeling alive as we are being seen not just for what we have endured, but for who we truly are in the time we have living.

Thank you for being a part of our movement.

With profound gratitude—Onward,

Marisa Peters
Founder, The BE SEEN Foundation, Inc.
