Great victory for www.penniesinaction.org

Through getting the message out about Dr.Czerniecki's breast cancer vaccine trials, a new patient from many miles away found her way to the University of Pennsylvania Hospital and was found to be eligible and is now enrolled in the trial.
Thanks to all my friends on facebook and twitter who were and are helping to get the message out.
Please send everybody you know to the site www.penniesinaction.org.
Everyone who had or might get breast cancer needs to know about these new developments. It will save many lives...
PLEASE HELP !!!

"The Taste of Media" breast cancer vaccine FUNdraiser...

Wow what an awesome event.
We had 300+ people show up for our “Taste of Media“ event to raise funds and awareness for breast cancer vaccine research, headed by Dr. Brian Czerniecki of the University of Pennsylvania hospital.
He updated us on his progress of his research. It was very promising and we will have an update on www.penniesinaction.org in the near future, (after he has published his findings)...
The event started at 7pm, Dr. Czerniecki spoke at 8:30, then we had a live auction and a silent auction and then the party kept going till the last guest left at 2:30 am.
It was so much fun, so informative and full of hope.
We raised $70 000.00+ last night for the cause and monies are still coming in. If you want to donate to the cause you can do that online at www.penniesinaction.org and click on the donate button.
I was so fortunate to have a wonderful committee of 25 people who were amazing.
Tanith Belbin and Ben Agosto 2006 Olympic siver medalists served as the honorary chairpersons, with their coaches Olympic Champions Natalia Linichuk and Gennardiy Kaparosov by their side.
Pictures to follow…

curing the economy by curing cancer

A while ago I saw interesting info by The National Bureau of Economic Research - 
" The Value of Health and Longevity" by Kevin Murphy and Robert Topel.

If we lower cancer deaths by only 1% we will bring 500 Billion Dollars into the economy.
If we cure cancer it would be 50 Trillion dollars!!!

Just imagine curing the economic crisis by stopping so much human suffering and helping so many people. What a concept...

But as we all Know you have to spend money to make money. Without all of us chipping in the necessary research will not be possible.

If 15,000,000 people (5% of the american population) would give just 1 penny a month it would amount to 1.5 million dollars or 1776 miles of pennies, and pay for one round of research.

Thank you for your time, have wonderful holidays.

Please check www.penniesinaction.org and I am looking forward to your comments.
