You make a lot of good for all the people you touch.
Organizations like yours are the ones I love. Where every penny matters and it goes to help.
Congratulations on another amazing event! I was so happy I got to be there. The event space was great... the speakers interesting and dynamic!
I've always loved your foundation but didn't know enough about it. I have been truly concerned about micro plastics and I learned so much today!
It was the best one yet!
This was my first year at Cancer Schmancer’s Health Summit and all I can say is I was blown away. I loved hearing all of the incredible speakers and was able to learn so much from them. The entire event was beautifully organized and it was apparent a great amount of thought, time and love went into every detail. I will be making this an annual event to attend!
I'm watching your conversation with Jane Fonda. I'm extremely touched.
I'm gonna turn 70 in February and I'm working on making these big changes in my life and I just think the two of you are so inspiring. I've lived my whole adult life as an activist and Jane Fonda is such a huge hero and so are you.
You and your team put on an absolutely fabulous event last weekend.
Thank you again. I left feeling educated, supported, inspired, and also intrigued by what the future holds for awareness and prevention, too. Really spectacular.
