On Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2009, Classy for the Cure held a fundraiser in honor of Jeanene Laegreid, who was the original founder of the Classy for the Cure group. She passed away on July 19th, 2008 after a courageous journey with GIST for 11 years. She always referred to her group of friends and family as her village. Her village created a successful fundraiser by raising over $10,000 for cancer research.
We would like to give a donation of $10,000 to the GIST cancer research fund. The remaining proceeds will go to the Susan G. Komen cancer fund. Jay was a dear friend to us and she will be deeply missed. This fundraiser brought us together and helped in our healing with a purpose that reflected her passion for raising awareness and finding a cure for GIST.
Pictures from event coming soon.
