Our family stood up for Cancer today at Ries Elementary School Blast off for a Cure Event on behalf of the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation

My daughter’s school Ries Elementary had a walk and event today for the Nevada Childhood cancer foundation. The event was hosted by Casey Smith from ABC Channel 13,he is one of their anchors. He does a tremendous job at it. He works for KTNV Action News here in Las Vegas, Nevada. His commitment to helping Cancer is obvious, he is truly an inspiration. If we could just find someone like that to help us to help autism we would be making a huge difference.

We also met Veronica Lopez an amazing singer who sang The Star Spangled Banner our US National Anthem for the event. She did a tremendous job.

The event was well attended and hopefully made a huge difference for cancer.

My family has been affected by Cancer, my sister is a breast cancer survivor, and my mom passed away from poly-cystic carcinoma 1-18-2002. My wife had 2 uncles and an aunt pass from cancer as well. It is a cause that is near and dear to my heart as well.

Though our main focus is helping autism, we also plan to give to help cancer as well once we have sponsors, supporters and donors.

Ries elementary did a great job with the inaugural event. We also all walked, jogged or ran a mile which is good for all of our health.

Please help the Nevada Childhood cancer foundation if you can—>http://www.nvccf.org/
