Calling my San Fran Homegirls!
The Answer to Cancer Foundation is coming to your neck of the woods!!! What is A2C you may ask? I've talked about it a thousand times here, so I'll do a short recap. A2C is the foundation my youngest brother started to help raise money for cancer research and education when he was fighting liver cancer in 2002 and 2003. We originally started as a small run/walk in Oregon in 2003. Since that time we've had 4 Oregon events, 2 New York/New Jersey events and 1 San Francisco event. The next one is on the calendar for NOVEMBER 11, 2006!
I went to this event last year and it was really great. Our partner, the Asian Liver Center at Stanford, works their tails off to make the event fun, educational and informative. There is the run/walk, but also food, entertainment and prizes. Anyway, the proceeds benefit liver cancer research and education at the Asian Liver Center - one of the most oustanding organizations of its kind in the country.
I can't be there this year since I'll be in Africa, but other members of my family will be. My oldest brother is speaking and will probably kick off the race...
