Paddle for the Cure Raises over $1,600 for New Mexico Cancer Care Alliance

The Boning and DeFillippo families like to challenge themselves physically and mentally so why not paddle Elephant Butte Lake. Cassie Boning and Butch DeFillippo, her brother-in-law, have several family members fighting cancer and they wanted to show their support for cancer research in New Mexico by raising money to benefit the NMCCA.

The Paddle for the Cure event was to take place on May 16, 2009, but bad weather forced the event to be rescheduled for July 11, 2009. The Boning and DeFillippo families would like to challenge anyone interested in helping raise money for cancer research to join on Elephant Butte Lake! For more information please call Cassie Boning at 505-410-1197.

If you or your group would like to sponsor an event to raise funds for the NMCCA and advance cancer research in our state, please contact Debbie Putt at dputt@nmcca.org or 505-272-7819

As a 501(c)(3) charitable, New Mexico nonprofit scientific and research organization, NMCCA depends upon donors to help us reach our goals of bringing cancer clinical trials and educational programs to New Mexicans.

Our Helping to Enhance Research in Oncology(SM) Programs [also known as our HERO Programs] range from educational, awareness and recognition events for the public to educational seminars for medical professionals. All events are designed to bring the most up-to-date information about cancer clinical research to New Mexicans.

NMCCA's research program involves a tremendous amount of government regulatory documentation, review and investigation to ensure that any clinical research study opened by NMCCA for its participating physicians is scientifically and ethically sound.
