Every minute,
someone – a family member, a friend, a colleague
– is diagnosed with cancer regardless of their state
of mind, the state of the economy, or the state of
the world.
Now, more than ever, cancer patients are in need
of the services provided by the Bennett Cancer
Center, offered to them at no cost, thanks to the
generosity of donors like you.
Please join us as a sponsor of Hope In Motion
where, as a community, we will come together
to offer cancer patients and their families
support and hope.
“Hope in Motion is important not only to raise
money for vital programs at the cancer center, but
also to show cancer patients that the community
really cares. It is inspiring…to see so many
individuals supporting us and our patients.
IT REALLY KEEPS US GOING.”
