Our Sponsors - Union Bank

www.unionbank.com"Our support of the Lazarex Cancer Foundation is in small part our commitment in building sustainable communities. Cancer just doesn't afflict the individual, it afflicts the family and it afflicts the community. It is so emotionally and financially devastating that it's effect causes people to have to make decisions that they ordinarily wouldn't have to, or want to, make. What Lazarex Cancer Foundation does is to help take that out of the equation at a time when the family is suffering the most. Being free of the burden of some of these decisions around keeping the family together is one of the true gifts that the Lazarex Cancer Foundation gives to a family, not only in fighting the disease, but in giving patients a sense of dignity and helping them fight the good fight."
