Welcome to Cars 4 Cures
The Lustgarten Foundation's mission "is to advance the scientific and medical research related to the diagnosis, treatment, cure and prevention of pancreatic cancer." They also provide services to patients through their Patient And Caregiver Education program (PACE.)
I lost my father in 1997 to pancreatic cancer. I also have lost other family members over the years to various other
types of cancer. After witnessing first hand the devastating effects of cancer and seeing the benefits the Lustgarten
Foundation provides to all members of the cancer community through its planning, development and funding of programs
which provide after-treatment support and services for people with pancreatic cancer and their families and its support
of scientific and clinical research, I felt I wanted to help raise funds for the Lustgarten Foundation and to raise
awareness about the importance of research and clinical trials in the search for treatments and cures.
This event is open to cars, trucks and motorcycles of all kinds. Antiques, classic, custom, hot rods, etc. Bring the whole family. Food and drinks will be available. Also, there will be vendor tables set up. So come out and show your car, shop around and support a worthy cause - to find a cure for pancreatic cancer. Click the Events link for more details.
If you would like to pre-register your vehicle for the event, you can download the registration form here. (Please Note: the form is in PDF format. Download Adobe Reader here.) Print it out and mail it in (the address is on the form. Also pre-registration due by June 5, 2009, $15.00 day of the event.) With the registration fee you will receive a plaque and t-shirt when you check-in, commemorating the event. There will be an entry fee for spectators of $5.00 for adults, kids free.
It is important to remember that each of us can make a difference in the fight against cancer, whether it be through making a donation, volunteering our time, or participating in a clinical trial or other clinical research, and our efforts should not cease until there are no more victims of cancer but instead only cancer survivors.
Thank you very much for joining the fight and supporting the Lustgarten Foundation and the services it provides to people living with cancer.
