Dear Friends
Vision, passion, determination and commitment. These are the core values that have defined Women Playing For T.I.M.E. since our beginnings in 1993 -- values that have empowered and united us to raise more than $7 million in our battle against breast and other women’s cancers right here in Central Florida. And these are the same values that will drive us into the future.
We continue to grow and welcome the energy, enthusiasm, and support of women throughout our community. We are especially excited about our new online “home” – a website that will not only inform, but engage and educate. It provides timely updates on our events and activities, opportunities for involvement, and a new online community for connecting and sharing support and stories of strength and encouragement.
This year, we are proud of another new “home” as well. M. D. Anderson – Orlando’s Cancer Research Institute – will soon relocate to Lake Nona’s “Medical City,” a unique community of collaboration, innovation and discovery. This move holds great promise and opportunity for the battle against cancer. And it makes our efforts at Women Playing For T.I.M.E. more critical and relevant than ever before. From volunteering to educating to raising funds, we need your involvement!
To everyone who has supported us in the past -- thank you! Please continue your commitment and help us reach out and bring fresh faces and vigor to our cause. And if you are just learning about us for the first time, I hope we have inspired you to learn more about how you can make a difference.
Fondly,
Elaine Lustig
Co-Founder and Chairperson
Challenging times, we are also fortunate to be living in times of great opportunity.
