We need your help to spread the message and help V Foundation raise $1M in Emily's honor.<br />_________________________________________________________<br />Every Dollar Counts<br /><br />Emily Miner, a 39 year-old mom of two, is the new face of lung cancer -- the leading cause of cancer deaths in North America. She never smoked, keeps fit and on the surface would appear to be the last person you'd imagine would get sick from this disease. <br /><br />This is Emily's Story http://www.winecelebration.org/<br /><br />The reality is lung cancer affects one in every 16 women, and kills more women each year than breast and all gynecological cancers combined. Now more than ever, we need to fight back against this disease. <br /><br />The V Foundation has pledged to raise $1,000,000 in Emily's honor to accelerate to clinical trial the research of a current lung cancer SPORE grant. These "Specialized Programs of Research Excellence"<br />promote interdisciplinary research and move basic findings by focusing on the institutions that have these programs. New protocols will be developed to treat this wide spread form of cancer.<br /><br />https://vfoundation.ejoinme.org/MyPages/DonationPage/tabid/14402/Default.aspx<br /><br /><br />With 100 % of every dollar going directly to the research - Every Dollar Counts. We're unleashing the power of the internet to advance our cause, and you can help by making a donation, and forwarding this email to everyone you know.<br /><br />Do it for Emily. Do it for someone you love<br /> <br />Support The Cause, Spread The Word and Share The Story<br />_________________________________________________________Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-754223241140943754.post-37253551566079689302008-07-16T15:50:00.000-04:002008-07-16T15:50:00.000-04:00This is a GREAT speech - it always makes me tear u...This is a GREAT speech - it always makes me tear up towards the end. I lost my father to lung cancer, so this is very important to me as well. Thanks for posting this.mdduckmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02989982135463483281noreply@blogger.com
