The Carcinoid Cancer Awareness Network, a non-profit patient advocacy group that provides support for cancer patients, has announced their 3rd Annual Zebra Walk and 8th Annual Gala. These are key events for generating important publicity and financial support used in the fight to cure carcinoid & other neuroendocrine cancers, such as the Neuroendocrine Islet Cell Cancer of the pancreas that claimed the life of Apple founder Steve Jobs.
For those who enjoy walking, CCAN’s third annual “Strides for Stripes Zebra Walk,” will kick off at 11 a.m. on Saturday, November 5 at Eisenhower Park in East Meadow, New York. More people get involved every year and a crowd of over 2,000 is anticipated. Each walker gets a tee shirt, pedometer and snacks. Coffee, snacks, sandwiches and other goodies will be available and there will be other activities as well. Register yourself or a group at http://www.firstgiving.com/CCAN.
