Each week, whoever raises the most funds from Monday-Sunday will receive a TNT Headsweats visor (pictured above). Whether you're in winter or fall season, marathon, triathlon or cycle team, whichever current TNT participant raises the most each week gets the prize.
Our local chapter is doing amazing things. Part of what you're raising is going to local researchers. This year, more than $12 million has been awarded to researchers at Baylor College of Medicne and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center right here in Houston.
In addition to the research, the LLS supports many patient programs and services including co-pay assistance. During fiscal year 2014, $2,758,585.81 was disbursed in the State of Texas to help patients with their out of pocket expenses.
We truly appreciate all of the effort each of you is putting into raising these funds. Blood cancer patients are truly benefitting from your contribution. Thank you and good luck as you tackle the fundraising challege for the next several weeks!
GO TEAM!!!
