On
Thursday, November 18th the annual Women for MACC Holiday General Meeting was
held at the Eggert Furniture Store in Brookfield. WMACC extends a very special
thank you to Eggert’s owner, Rick Engel, and his staff for hosting the festive
evening and for their generous financial support to Women for MACC and childhood
cancer research.
WMACC President Gayle Denton provided
updates on the various events in 2003 and presented special recognition awards
to the following individuals and organizations for their continued support and
commitment to our cause.
- Hartford Conservation and Gun Club
- Leitzke IV Printing LTD
- Hyatt Regency-Milwaukee
- Treiber and Straub
- Mortensen Photography
- Jack Abuya
- Nancy Robjohns
- Mark Haagensen
Following the award ceremony, Executive
Director John Cary, on behalf of the MACC FUND, accepted a check for $130,000
representing proceeds from several WMACC events. Since our inception, WMACC has
donated 2.5 million dollars to the MACC Fund.
Dr. Robert Truitt, associate director
for basic science research at the Cancer Center at the Medical College of Wisconsin,
gave an inspiring and informative talk about the many research advancements that
have been possible through the ongoing support of Women for MACC and the MACC
Fund.
The evening concluded with refreshments,
conversation, and holiday shopping. If you were unable to attend this meeting,
please mark April 29th, 2004 on your calendar. We have something really special
planned for our spring meeting. We hope to see you there!
