Team Oncology & Hematology to Participate in Terri Brodeur Breast Cancer Foundation’s (TBBCF) Walk Across Southeastern Connecticut

On October 2, 2010, Team Oncology & Hematology will be joining hundreds of walkers on a marathon through Southeastern Connecticut. Our team consists of seven women in the medical profession that are dedicated to helping find a cure. We have taken on this challenge – Terri Brodeur Breast Cancer Foundation’s (TBBCF) Walk Across Southeastern Connecticut - to raise funds for breast cancer research. Participating in the TBBCF Walk Across Southeastern Connecticut allows us to be part of the search for a cure.

The Terri Brodeur Breast Cancer Foundation is a local, 501 (c) (3)non-profit organization, founded by Norma Logan and Sandy Maniscalco, and dedicated to fighting this devastating disease.

Many organizations raise money for breast cancer research and awareness. The pink ribbons we see everywhere are evidence of their success.

The Terri Brodeur Breast Cancer Foundation is different from other breast cancer foundations in that 100% of the fundraising dollars go directly to breast cancer research. You might ask, "How is that possible?" This foundation is run by experienced volunteers and depends on sponsorship dollars to cover fundraising events and administrative costs. It is due to that 100% commitment that over 1.5 million dollars has been raised allowing 15 grants to be given to our best and brightest breast cancer researchers to fund promising research to end this horrendous disease.

In order to participate in this exciting event, we need to raise $500 a person, totaling $3500. We hope we can count on your support. Help us reach our goal! And remember, your gift is tax-deductible.
