Our origins:

Audrey Alvarado and Gail Y. Paskind are grateful patients of several Chicago area oncology department medical centers.  As cancer survivors, they, together with Karen Dinelli, decided to honor their physicians by fundraising for cancer research and assisting in the future care of all Head & Neck cancer patients in the continuous battle of this disease. 

We hope our efforts will increase public awareness and promote support for the Head & Neck Cancer community. All monies raised and donations will be allocated to the Head & Neck surgical and medical oncology departments of hospitals, universities and medical centers. We also donate to organizations who have the same mission of assisting patients diagnosed with Head & Neck Cancer and are coping with the long term side effects of  its often difficult treatment.
