“Going Above and Beyond the Call of Duty to Help our Veterans"

 

All of us know what cancer is. We all have felt the utter devastation that the word "Cancer" brings with it. What we must do is promote strength and courage through knowledge and research.           

STATEWIDE PROJECT

We are asking you to use the "Windmill of Courage" as you develop your cancer educational program, and we have chosen the dreaded Pancreatic and Colon cancers as our “Theme Cancers"

 

AUXILIARY INSTRUCTION

Each Auxiliary is requested to keep records of all Cancer Aid & Research activities such as, Cancer Pins (form furnished), $2.00 per member, Statewide Project, all fundraising, educational programs, Post Doctoral Fellowship, and instruction of Cancer Grants, available through National, for our members. The four gifts (value minimum of $25.00 each) may be individual or with District for the Mid-Winter Cancer Aid & Research Fund Drive.

 

All checks MUST be mailed directly to the Department Treasurer properly earmarked with explanation. Example: cancer pins, $2 per member, fundraiser
