In a post yesterday, I noted that $4.5 million in American Cancer Society research grants are at Pittsburgh medical research facilities.
So, quite literally, hope lives here.
And what better way to promote hope living here than to wear some Pittsburgh pride!
Your purchase of one of these shirts can support my American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Greater Cranberry Township efforts!
And we have options.
Interested in rocking one of these? Message me at BobbyCherry2@gmail.com.
Research is the most important aspect of the American Cancer Society. Since 1946, the American Cancer Society has helped to make nearly every major cancer research breakthrough.
Right now in Pittsburgh, the American Cancer Society has provided more than $4.5 million in research grants. So the next cancer breakthrough could happen in the City of Champions!

I realized recently I can’t always remember some events from my childhood. That is, until something jogs my memory — a photo, an ornament, a story, etc.
It’s been 21 years since my grandma’s death, and, unlike other days in my childhood, I’ve never forgotten the day she died. While I’ll never know how long she might have lived had cancer not taken her, I’ll forever blame cancer for cutting short the time I had with her.
She’s the reason I started participating in the American Cancer Society Relay For Life. And it is the research, the programs, the services, the education, the advocacy the American Cancer Society does that has kept me involved more than 20 years later.
Cancer took my gram away far too early, so it’s been my motivation to make sure other children can share more moments and memories with their grandmas (and grandpas) that I was not afforded.

While cancer affects anyone, it does not affect everyone equally. Data shows cancer affects some minority populations and those without adequate health care more than other populations.
Among the initiatives your donations support include the American Cancer Society’s Community Health Advocates implementing Nationwide Grants for Empowerment and Equity (CHANGE) Grant Program. This effort “builds community and system capacity to promote health equity, access and navigation to screening resources within underserved communities,” according to the organization’s website.
In addition to donating, you may consider purchasing a luminaria in honor or memory of a loved one who has faced cancer.

Money raised supports American Cancer Society efforts such as Hope Lodge, where cancer patients and caregivers can find comfort during medical treatments.
“American Cancer Society having this Hope Lodge for a family that has to go through something as traumatic as we are — I can’t describe it… They’ve saved us so much money and so much stress.” — Eileen Fauteux & Her Mother

I’d like to invite you to a great community celebration to help support programs and research in our effort to fight cancer.
