**April 18, 2010** 1:00PM-4:00PM Drexel Park What is the American Cancer Society “Bark For Life” Mini Relay? The
American Cancer Society “Bark For Life” (BFL) Mini-Relay is an ACS
Relay fund raising event that will honor the care giving qualities of
our canine “Best Friends”. The ACS Bark For Life honors the
life-long contribution of our Canine Caregivers. It presents an
opportunity for people to be empowered through their canine companion
partnerships and to contribute to cancer cures through the mission of
the American Cancer Society. Canine Caregivers are Canine
Companions, Guide Dogs, Service Dogs, Rescue Dogs, Therapy Dogs, Police
Dogs, Cancer Survivor Dogs, and Diagnostic Dogs, who with their owners,
are joining the American Cancer Society as Relay teams and
participants to celebrate cancer survivorship, to honor people lost to
cancer, to fund raise in support of cancer research, education,
awareness, patient services, advocacy, and to help eliminate the
suffering that cancer causes worldwide. Canine companions represent unconditional love, joy, security, compassion, and no judgments of human abilities
or appearances. The American Cancer Society Bark For Life is an
irresistible way to “take a bite out of cancer”, smile, and make new
friends – canine & human. Please check out our Facebook Group at http://www.facebook.com/search/?q=first+annual&init=quick#!/group.php?gid=437470440390&ref=ts |
