Dear Friends, Family and Colleagues:
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month! Breast Cancer is a serious and if untreated, deadly disease that 1 in 8 women will experience in their lifetime. Men can get it too. But with earlier detection and advances in breast cancer research, more people are being diagnosed and treated for breast cancer earlier, and surviving and thriving.
We have decided to participate in the Pinkathon Challenge for Breast Cancer, to raise money for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF), the top-rated breast cancer charity in the world. BCRF funds research that leads to life-saving advances in breast cancer diagnosis and treatments. BCRF is recognized for its commitment to transparency and efficient use of donations. Since billions of dollars in federal funding have recently been pulled from medical research, it’s more important than ever to support the causes we care about.
Please join us in supporting the Breast Cancer Research Foundation with your donation in any amount you can. Together, let's keep on funding breast cancer research and hopefully one day, a cure!
