Hello Everyone

CELEBRATING OUR HERITAGE EVENT , held February 19–22, 2009 in Atlanta, GA was an absolute success! I was honored to be given The Good Deeds International Civic Leadership Award on behalf of my work with the Foundation. The event was spectacular! In addition to the events & the activities that took place, we had the pleasure of meeting several people from Atlanta, Cleveland, North Carolina, Alabama, LA, Oakland, Virginia, Seattle, and Las Vegas. A very special thank you to all of you who supported the Foundation by purchasing one of our pink items. We truly appreciate your support.

JAWANDA’s FUNDRAISER: The fundraiser and birthday celebration for Jawanda was an absolute success! The event was held at The Marmon Grand on Sunday, March 22nd. It was a joy to see so many steppers in support of Jawanda. For those of you unaware of the reasoning for the event, Jawanda suffered a devastating brain injury after an automobile accident. Although she is doing better, she is going to need financial assistance to offset the enormous expenses related to her illness and long term recovery. If you were not able to make it and would still like to make a donation please contact: Yvette O’Donnell: 708-951-1303 or Leslie Roberts: 305-775-3705

EARLY DETECTION: BREAST THERMOGRAPHY > > Better Than Mammograms?
How do we detect changes in breast tissue BEFORE they develop into masses? Digital Infrared Thermography of the breast can detect changes in heat patterns produced from increased circulation around damaged, precancerous and cancerous cells. This effective diagnostic screening involves no radiation, no compression of breast tissue, and no pain.

Illinois SAC Program: STAND AGAINST CANCER PROGRAM. Are you or someone you know uninsured or underinsured? Have you been diagnosed with cancer (of any kind)? The SAC Program provides clinical breast exams, pap smears, mammograms and other services at NO COST. Click Here for more Information.

The Best defense against breast cancer is a good offense. There are no perfect solutions, but you can do many things to reduce your risk of developing the disease.

Risk Factors
Alcohol consumption.
Studies have shown that breast cancer risk increases with the amount of alcohol a woman drinks. Alcohol can limit your liver’s ability to control blood levels of the hormone estrogen, which in turn can increase risk.

The Pink Chain: Please forward this letter to as many people as you can.
