FISCAL YEAR END 2012 CANCER RESEARCH FOUNDATION ACTIVITIES (July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012) The Cancer Research Foundation relies on public contributions to help offset the costs of conducting clinical trials and offering support services at the Cancer Resource Centre for Cancer patients and their family members as well as offering Community Outreach activities relating to cancer care. Through the generous support of many individuals and organizations, these services have been possible. The activities of the foundation are also substantially supported by the hospitals of the Community Healthcare System through financial and personnel resources. FOUNDATION ACTIVITIES: The foundation continuously seeks opportunities to educate the public and professionals about the latest in cancer care and participates and supports prevention and screening programs in the hope of reducing the morbidity and mortality of cancer. Programs held this year included the following: Annual Fall Symposium held October 5, 2011: This program targeted individuals with cancer and their support persons. This year's program-"An Evening of Hope and Laughter" featured two inspiring women, Janice Zunich, M.D. and Diana Jordan. Dr. Zunich's lecture on the role of genetics in breast and ovarian cancer was very informative and educated the audience on what role genetics plays in two important women's cancers. Diana Jordan, a cancer survivor and comedienne captured the attention of the participants by sharing her personal journey with breast cancer with a hilarious twist on the treatment experience. Annual Spring Symposium-Cancer update held on March 17, 2012 for healthcare professionals: Expert speakers educated professionals on cancer in males including testicular and prostate cancer. The workshop ended with an excellent perspective by Wendy Harpham, M.D. who shared her personal experience with cancer giving suggestions to help individuals find "Happiness in the Storm." Both programs were held free of charge to the participants. Cancer Research Department Activities - The Cancer Research Department staff participated in the following programs during this past fiscal year: The Cancer Research Department continues to offer a number of clinical trials locally through the National Cancer Institute Cancer Trials Support Unit (CTSU) and Central Institutional Review Board (NCI CIRB) networks and the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Programs (NSABP) as well as through various pharmaceutical sponsors. Tissue banking studies continue to be an integral part of our research. These enable researchers to work towards developing a more targeted approach to care in the hope of finding treatments that attack specific cancer cell types and medications that are more tolerable with fewer side effects. Nearly 100% of patients enrolled in studies at our site participate in the tissue and blood studies. FUNDRAISING EVENTS: Annual Perennial Ball held in April 2012: Major fundraiser for the Foundation general contributions held in the spring. The event is a dinner followed by music with a short program before dinner describing the foundation activities. Proceeds from this event totaled $302,201. Cancer Resource Centre Romp and Roll: The Cancer Resource Centre's main fundraising event included both a walk and fun run this year. This year's event raised $114,064. Tree Lighting Ceremony: This event highlighted breast cancer in the past and was changed to include all cancers. In addition to breast cancer awareness pins, cancer awareness pins and hope lapel pins were offered to honor individuals with cancer. This year's event raised $11,550 for cancer research. Although the event initially started as a fundraising one, many individuals join in celebrating their survivorship or to honor or remember a loved one. Friends of the Cancer Resource Centre: Notecards with photographs donated by local photographer Pete Doherty and printed by Largus Printing were sold in various locations throughout Northwest Indiana. Proceeds from the card sales benefited the Cancer Resource centre. The Friends hosted a "Share the Love Luncheon" featuring guest speaker Rob Johnson a local CBS 2 news celebrity. Rob's personable story was well received by the participants who had their questions answered about his success in a difficult business. Rob generously donated his time towards the event and helped raise $19,287. The Cancer Resource Centre, which was opened June 1, 2003 continues to grow and expand services. New programs implemented this year included the following: Mind over Matters Support Group Brain Cancer Support Group Oral Hygiene Finding you PEP Insurance Navigation Navigating the Internet Easy Gardening Spirituality and Cancer Enhanced orientation program including RN Cancer Care Bag Distribution to newly diagnosed patients in the healthcare system Created Facebook page for the Cancer Resource Centre FUTURE DIRECTIONS: The Community Cancer Research Foundation will focus on the following goals for the upcoming year: Continue to expand Gynecology Oncology Group program Create interactive Facebook page to elicit more activity and awareness of organization Provide programming which attracts active, working individuals diagnosed with cancer and their loved ones including support and other services which they might utilize; explore social networking sites for potential promotion of services Further promote Cancer Care Bag program Promote services within own organization and other community organizations Work closely with hospitals cancer committees to fulfill accreditation requirements of the American College of Surgeons Work interactively with Breast Cancer Leadership to enhance and promote services Add additional members to the Cancer Resource Centre Advisory Group Have more interaction of RN's with Cancer Resource Centre activities and education
