4-H members and clubs are needed to assist with the Cattlemen for Cancer Research Fundraiser on October 15 at 10 a.m. at Hills Prairie Livestock Auction. 4-H is using this as a county wide community service project with each club providing a basket or item for the silent auction to benefit the M.D. Anderson Michale E. Keeling Center for Comparative Medicine and Research near Bastrop. Please bring club baskets in to the office by October 14, or take them to Hills Prairie Auction Barn on October 14.
The Cattlemen for Cancer Research Committee formed in 1999 to fight cancer in their own backyard. In those years, CCR has raised more than $760,000 to fund programs of M.D. Anderson's Michale E. Keeling Center for Comparative Medicine and Research. In addition, a separate dedicated fund has provided more than $90,000 to aid patients and their families from Williamson, Travis, Lee, Bastrop, and Hays counties who need financial assistance with lodging, meals, and transportation while staying in Houston to receive cancer care. Help us support this event.
