This day is meant to honor those special men who have made a significant difference in our lives. Now, a generous donor is making it possible for you to honor that man in your life with a truly meaningful gift: a donation to fuel the fight to end Esophageal Cancer that is worth twice the amount you donate. This donor has challenged ECAN to raise $5,000 before midnight on Monday and will match every donation made before that deadline.
Your donation will work to fight this devastating disease that has taken so many fathers from their families. Men like John whose confidence in them made his children believe they could do anything they set their minds to. And Bill whose untold hours sharing his hobbies, good humor, and steadfast support made his kids feel secure every day. Or Bob who lived each day demonstrating how to live a good and generous life, even in the face of terrible circumstances.
Here at ECAN, we are mindful of just how precious these men are because Esophageal Cancer affects men four times more often than women. Much more progress is required to end the toll this insidious disease is taking on those men and their families. And that’s why this fundraising challenge is so important.
By making a gift now, you will double your impact to ensure that Esophageal Cancer researchers continue to receive millions of dollars in critical federal funding each year, that patients and families have the resources they need to make decisions that could save lives, and that passionate advocates are equipped and ready to stand up for patients at risk of Esophageal Cancer.
Your gift will honor the many thousands of men who have faced this disease with grace and courage – and thousands more who are battling Esophageal Cancer today.
No matter who you choose to honor or how much you give, your donation will make a meaningful difference – and go twice as far if you donate before midnight on Father‘s Day. And we will be glad to send a handwritten note to anyone you would like to inform about your tribute.
Wishing a Happy Father’s Day to all fathers and men treasured like fathers, to those who are with us … and those we remember and honor today and every day.
Every dollar you give will be matched by another generous ECAN family missing a loving father this weekend. They will donate up to $5,000 to match every donation made before midnight on Father‘s Day.
