The Cancer Bus 9/16

Disclaimer: This post is a little late. I was in charge of a really cool event last month. It was called the American Cancer Society's Cancer Action Network Fight Back Bus... long name, fun event. To learn more about it go to :http://www.asccan.org/bus

We had a program that included the Mayor of St. George and former KSL anchorman, Dick Nourse. (Who, by the way, is very tall in real life) Since an estimated 565,650 Americans will die of cancer this year, the American Cancer Society Fight Back Express is on a six-month tour of the 48 continental United States carrying the message that Americans have the power to fight cancer in this country with their voices. The bus will end it's journey in Washington DC on Election Day. It was a pretty moving event, there were a lot of families that had lost parents, grandparents, and siblings. They were all there signing for their loved ones. It just reminded me that we can do so much to help eachother, starting with a small signature.

I signed the bus for my Grandma Lani, who has defeated Cancer 2 times.

Overall it was amazing. There were so many signatures on that bus! I couldn't believe it!
