Save Your Skin Foundation (Cruise for a Cause)

As you know, cancer has taken away a number of important people in my life … my friend Derek K. Miller this year, my grandmother, my 2 aunts and recently, even though I only met him once and I never voted here, of relevance to all Canadians, Jack Layton among many, many others. I feel it’s important that I promote fundraisers and events for cancer research and awareness whenever I can.

In case you you missed it, I’ve blogged about the Save Your Skin foundation here. If the cause of skin cancer touches you, directly or indirectly, you should think about attending the Cruise for a Cause fundraiser:

On Friday August 26, 2011 the Save Your Skin Foundation is holding its 4th Annual Cruise For A Cause Boat cruise fundraiser. The highly anticipated event is back cruising around the city of Vancouver all for a good cause. Come aboard the Queen of Diamonds for a night that includes, a three course dinner, entertainment, door prizes, silent auction and much more. All proceeds go towards the Save Your Skin Foundation to help bring awareness to and help those touched by melanoma skin cancer.

For more information or tickets, visit the Save Your Skin Foundation website.

It will be an entertaining evening with great food and good entertainment, all for the cause of melanoma skin cancer. Hopefully many of you will be able to check it out.
