Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 3 | Excited to announce that registration is now open for this inaugural event at www.oralcancerfoundation.org/events. Now we need participants to sign up and join us as we "spread awareness - save lives"! Volunteers have been working hard to put Chicago / Northern Illinois on the map and be recognized as a leader in Oral Cancer prevention and early detection. So let's set a new record for an inaugural Walk and help the Oral Cancer Foundation reach its fundraising goal in an effort to put an end to this disease. See our event page for additional details. -Alison Stahl, Event Coordinator [email protected] | | | | | Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 1,844 Patient Advocate (1000+ posts) | | Patient Advocate (1000+ posts)

Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 1,844 | Alison, (and anyone else doing an awareness walk) I'll be helping you round up local corporate sponsors for your event as well as using social media targeted to folks in your area to spread the word, doing so more frequently the closer to your event date. I will be reaching out to people I know in your events area, and encouraging other members of OCF to do the same, to come out to support your event. Kind of what I do for OCF when I'm not brightening it's forums with my brilliance and humor  I used to be in sales and marketing so I try to use my manipulative powers for good and the betterment of mankind. Yes, I am usually this full of myself too, just in case you were wondering.  Eric
