Lung Cancer Awareness Month Event at City of Hope

[Fay A.]

I'm posting this for informational purposes:

I've heard from City of Hope re the Lung Cancer Awareness Month event planned for November 9th. I'm sharing the emailed information with you. This will not be an opportunity for direct fundraising for LCSC. But, it may open the door to additional exposure for LCSC with people who do contribute towards the support of groups like LCSC. The purpose of LCSC is primarily support for those who have been touched by Lung Cancer. This will be a good opportunity to let others who are interested in Lung Cancer know that we exist.

We will provide tables for you to display so please let me know if you need more than one table and if you'll need easels (if so, how many) to display posterboards, etc. We ask that no fundraising activities be conducted, however, you are free to hand out collateral information encouraging attendees to visit your Web site or to contact your organization.

I will also send out a reminder email sometime next week, as the event draws closer. Again Pamela, thank you so very much to you and your group for lending support to this event. We expect a good crowd! Talk with you soon.
