AVON Walk - ABCF will participate
On April 12th and 13th, Minnie Hines-Chen, Judy Gedalia and Cindy Stephens will
be walking in Houston as the Alamo Breast Cancer Foundation Team in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer.
Dale Eastman is going to be crewing the event. This is a 2 day 39 mile walk to raise money for the Avon Foundation which donates
generous amounts of money to many organizations (including ABCF's Patient Advocate Program) to further research, education, advocacy and outreach.
This is our way of saying Thank You to them for all they do. Please consider donating generously and equally to each of our walkers and crew. You
can donate on the site: www.walk.avonfoundation.com, click on "make a donation" and then put our names.
This will take you to our personal pages where a contribution can be made.

Which presidential candidate has the best plan to eradicate breast cancer?
NBCC sent a letter to each Presidential candidate requesting a video response telling us what he or she would do
as President to eradicate breast cancer. We also asked for a written response to NBCC's core issues.
Watch the videos, read the responses and vote on which candidate you think has the best plans
to eradicate breast cancer!
Watch the Videos. Read the Responses. Cast Your Vote!
