A Cure for Cancer? Well, not exactly..but we're throwing our hat, art into the ring!

“On June 4th, 2006 I would have trained for 4 months to complete a full 26.2 or 40K run or walk in honor of my hero Matthew, other kids and adults like him who are dealing with and beating blood cancers like Leukemia! I would be very appreciative and honored to have you support my team, Team in Training, the largest endurance training organization affiliated with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society” Paul says with conviction. Apparel Ism Journal (AIJ), has named Paul Finkelstein’s team as a recipient of A Cure for Cancer! AIJ “A Cure for Cancer!” campaign gives money to grassroots cancer organizations.
