Saint Agatha Foundation ’s Post

With our 15th Anniversary Gala (Syracuse Oncenter, October 24th) fast approaching -- we're taking another opportunity to remind our friends & followers here on social media what we mean by the event theme: "The Promise Continues." As some may already know, Laurie Mezzalingua established Saint Agatha Foundation in 2004, not long after she was diagnosed with breast cancer (in 1997) -- and when she realized many breast cancer patients struggle to fight the illness AND pay bills stemming from that battle... Be it countless doctor appointments and co-pays, endless tests, treatment itself, or many other activities that arise from beating breast cancer. When Laurie left us in 2009 after a 12-year fight with the disease, our Foundation made a solemn promise to continue the work she'd began -- helping with the unmet financial needs of CNY's breast cancer patients. Since then, we've made good on that promise; statistics like the one here, which speaks to our growing list of exceptional partner-providers, is but one example. But we have more to accomplish, more we can do, and more breast cancer patients we can reach! In that light, we hope you will join us for our Gala at the end of October, to take stock in and celebrate this milestone. And to join us in recommitting to fulfilling our promise. Tickets and sponsorships are available right now! https://lnkd.in/gKTkY5qy #breastcancerawareness #breastcancersupport #breastcancerjourney #cnybreastcancer #syracuseny #breastcancerdetection #breastcancersurvivor #breastcancer CancerConnects, Inc.
