Our Voice: Giving
by Brooke McMillan
A lot has been said about the Foundation in recent weeks, but often times our voice is missing from the story being told. Our work has always been about helping people affected by cancer. In an effort to better share what we do with you we’d like you to meet some of the Foundation staff members in charge of our valuable programs and services—the people who work hard every day to make sure the needs of cancer survivors and their loved ones are met.
Meet Ron, Director of Gift Planning. For Ron, the game-changing moment in his life was his own diagnosis of prostate cancer in 2005. Sharing his personal and ongoing fight with the disease helps “drive home” our mission to potential donors. Being able to speak from experience on the importance of our work helps make our mission real to those interested in donating.
We are truly lucky to have many cancer survivors on staff at the foundation. For us this is not just a job, it’s a calling. For more information about all the ways to give to the Foundation, please visit: LIVESTRONG.org/Donate
