Member Events
Thank you to all of you who volunteer and create and host events to benefit our community. From dance recitals to walks, roller derby to baseball and everything in between, your events are raising awareness of the risks of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and much need funding for FORCE programs to support the community. Your events are forging new friendships and partnerships and creating new memories. We're excited to share these events with all of our community.

We are so incredibly grateful for this support and the hard work, creativity and dedication that goes into each and every activity. Sincerely yours,
Sue Friedman P.S. If you have a local activity you'd like to share or an idea for an event you'd like to host, please contact Barbara Pfeiffer. |
Gabby's Mitzvah ProjectEvery student at Gabby's Hebrew school was asked to do one mitzvot (good deed) before their bat/bar mitzvah. Gabby chose FORCE and sold reusable "I chose to raise money for your organization because my Grandma Arlene died of this horrible disease. I do not want anyone to go through what I had to go through. My grandma didn’t even tell me that she had breast cancer because she didn’t want to scare me. I found out when my mom talked to me and we both started to bawl. The life of my loved one was gone because of this horrible disease. I loved her so much and I hate to see people’s lives come and go because they were not able to be cured." "This mitzvah project means a lot to me for several reasons. First, my grandma died from this disease because they did not catch the cancer early enough to be cured. Second, I miss my grandmother so much and I do not want anymore people’s lives to be gone because of breast cancer. Third, I have many friends who also have family members who have gone through cancer. Once a loved one is gone your life can change forever. I want breast cancer to be stopped. I hope my money donation will help you guys to find a cure!" |
