Please join Expedition Inspiration for the 11th Annual Take-A-Hike on Saturday, October 14, 2006 at Paramount Ranch, Agoura.
Breast cancer affects one in every eight American women. Every eleven minutes breast cancer claims the life of a mother, a daughter, a sister and a friend.
Help raise funds to support promising new research at the USC/Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center, one of 39 comprehensive cancer centers designated by the National Cancer Institute as a leader in cancer prevention and treatment. Michael Press, M.D., Ph.D., co-director of the Breast Cancer Research Program at USC/Norris is investigating molecular genetic alterations in breast cancer and their role in prevention and treatment. Funds will also support the Revlon/UCLA Breast Center. Under the direction of Helena R. Chang, MD, PhD, the research seeks to significantly advance knowledge about breast cancer and to develop new standards for breast cancer care by participating in national trials and cutting-edge studies, including those developed be cancer researchers at UCLA.
Your fund-raising efforts also enable Expedition Inspiration to bring together eminent breast cancer scientists at their annual Medical Symposium. This forum fosters an accelerated exchange of ideas in the field of breast cancer research, thus contributing to the dissemination of important new findings and better treatment options for breast cancer patients.
Be part of the uplifting spirit of the Expedition Inspiration team of breast cancer survivors - who not only climb mountains, but also move them!?
