7TH ANNUAL FAITH FANCHER BREAST CANCER CHALLENGE
SATURDAY, AUGUST 20TH LAKE MERRITT IN OAKLAND 9AM
For those of you unfamiliar with the organization, please visit our website www.faithfancher.org or read on. After her breast cancer diagnosis our dear friend, Faith Fancher, longtime Bay Area news reporter, met many low-income, un- and under-insured women who needed help in many ways - large and small. The cost of a mammogram or medical follow-up, a translator, childcare, transportation to an appointment, a utility bill paid, a navigator through the involved medical system, etc. Friends of Faith raises funds for organizations who help these women in need, in so many ways. With a modest financial "stipend" we can impact how a woman faces a difficult situation.
Faith started this organization with a wise group of women in media -most of whom were insured and who were willing to ask their friends and family to support this important cause. We continue to honor her early efforts with our 7th Annual Breast Cancer Challenge and hope you will join us. And before I forget - IT'S FUN, GREAT EXERCISE, YOU'LL GET A NICE T-SHIRT and I'll personally decorate you!
