Support the NSMC Cancer Center

On June 22, 2008 many fine volunteers will be walking to benefit the NSMC Cancer Center on Boston's North Shore. Some one that you know will be walking to benefit the center, so if you can't walk, please support one of the many fine volunteers. The 10K (6.2 mile) walk winds through historic Salem, MA. This would be an enjoyable event even if was not for such a great cause.
For information, visit the NSMC site directly. If you are like me, you want to know how your money is being spent. This is not some general funding of cancer research, but direct funding that will help cancer patients directly. According to the NSMC site :
Funds raised in 2008 will directly benefit the expansion and relocation of the NSMC Cancer Center to the Mass General/North Shore Center for Outpatient Care in Danvers, slated to open in 2009.
The information in this post was derived from http://nsmc.partners.org in an effort to support their cause. This post was not solicited by NSMC, rather it is a voluntary endorsement by Lizabetti.com.
