Friends of WPFT

Friends of Women Playing For T.I.M.E.

A monetary contribution gift is not limited to only a loved one or friend that has passed away.  WPFT welcomes contributions in honor of birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, births, or any event important to you. Whether it is an honorarium or a memorial, a tribute gift is an easy way to show your support to WPFT while recognizing a special person in your life. Your tax deductible gift will be acknowledged and receipted and the person/family will be notified that a gift was made in their honor/memory.

We extend a special thank you to the following individuals and companies who have provided substantial goods and services in support of our events and initiatives*:

In addition to participation in our events, you can support MD Anderson – Orlando through:

Major gifts  - Major gifts are from individuals interested in joining MD Anderson – Orlando in its mission to defeat cancer will always be critical to the realization of that mission. 
Annual Fund  - A gift to the MD Anderson – Orlando Annual Fund or the 1918 Society better enables us to meet the financial requirements for providing superior cancer services. 
Planned Gifts  - The highest compliment we can receive is for someone to feel strongly enough about our work to want to leave us a portion of their estate through their will or trust. Please consider a planned gift to benefit MD Anderson – Orlando. 
Tribute Gifts  - Tribute gifts are a convenient way to give a lasting tribute as recognition for a special person or loved one.
