Dear Family and Friends,
As you know, I am passionate about cancer research. We believe we have made great strides in providing potential new therapies for a childhood disease called neuroblastoma, which most often strikes in infancy, effecting about 800 infants a year. Currently, many of those infants die from the disease, which as you can imagine, is devastating for those families. We have come up with a way to make these cancer cells more normal (more differentiated), and help these infants live longer, or even potentially be cured.
 
Alex's Lemonade Stand has already funded us to help with this work, but we require additional funds to translate and get these studies into a clinical trial.
 
Alex’s Lemonade Stand has pledged to match any funds we raise. In addition, from September 19-23, Volvo has committed to match each donation dollar for dollar. That means for every dollar you commit, we will receive four dollars to do pediatric cancer research! The impact will be even greater, as the pathways that we study are relevant to almost all human cancers.

This is a chance to match your charitable giving, to raise awareness for childhood cancers, and to easily make a tax deductible gift for a great cause!
