Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!
My caption here is "Let them live their dreams...whatever it may be". Pictured here is my grandson Lincoln, a happy and healthy guy. Unfortunately there are kids like Lincoln who are confronted, so early in life, with the daunting battle against cancer, most often leukemia. On Aug 6-7 my daughter Jody and I will be taking the green flag in the "Race Against Leukemia" at New Hampshire Speedway to raise funds for the UMass Memorial Foundation
The UMass Memorial Foundation raises funds on behalf of the University of Massachusetts Medical School and UMass Memorial Health Care, Inc. Through the careful and responsible stewardship of these funds, the Foundation works with donors to facilitate advancements in medical research, patient care and the education of tomorrow’s medical professionals. Some of the programs supported through gifts to the Foundation include cancer research, pediatric child life services, newborn intensive care, hospice care, equipment needs for research and patient care, and medical education. I invite you to learn more about how you can support UMass Memorial by visiting the following link: http://www.ner.org/region/racing-against-leukemia or by calling 508-856-5520 or e-mailing giving@umassmed.edu.
Your gift, of whatever you can spare, to the UMass Memorial Foundation has the power to change and save lives. With attention focused on research, patient care and medical education, your support of the UMass Memorial Foundation helps put medical advances into action, improve health and quality of life and educate tomorrow's medical leaders.
Jody and I appreciate your support. Sincerely, Doug Fisher
