What is
Fund-A-Cure?
When you contribute to
Fund-A-Cure (FAC) you are making
a direct contribution to fund a
research grant. This year our
chapter has chosen the
Artificial Pancreas Project and
100% of contributions pledged
towards FAC will go directly
towards this research in honor
of the 2008 Promise Ball
Honorees, The Louis and Vivian
Vance Family. You can donate to
FAC in one of two ways, you can
make a contribution prior to the
Promise Ball over the phone by
calling the office
(210-822-5336) or you can wait
until the night of the gala and
simply raise your bid number
when you hear the level at which
you would like to make your
contribution.
Artificial Pancreas Project
This year all the funds that our
chapter raises through
Fund-A-Cure are being applied
towards the Artificial Pancreas
Project. 100% of proceeds given
to Fund-A-Cure at our gala will
support this important project.
