Friends and Family,

I’m raising money for lung cancer research, and your donation has never had the opportunity to pack such a wallop. That’s because whatever you donate will be QUADRUPLED! For example, if you donate $100, then $400 will go to lung cancer research.

Here’s how it works. An anonymous donor has agreed to match any donations you and I raise together up to $10,000. When the donations are finalized and turned in to LUNGevity, the anonymous donor will double it, turning into $20,000. Then the Sally Rudney Memorial Fund will double THAT donation, turning it into $40,000!

The research is being sponsored by the EGFR Resisters in conjunction with LUNGevity, and the funds go through LUNGevity. The EGFR Resisters direct the research dollars to grants that have the potential for the most impact for people living with the EGFR lung cancer mutation, like me. This work could have a direct bearing on how long some of us live.

I know that good work is being done because I have been involved in one of the research grants. I reviewed clinical trial protocols and recommended changes, and I rewrote the informed consent document to make it was readable by a lay person. Patients direct what research will be done and how it will be carried out.

 I couldn’t be more excited by this opportunity. I hope you are as well. My goal is to reach $10,000 (before any matching funds) by my birthday, April 23rd. That gives us 30 days!

Thank you for anything you choose to contribute to this cause that is so near and dear to my heart.

Love,

Dann
