Attack ACC

Meet my Mom, Alicia Almanza. She is a 16 year survivor of Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma. Recently she had to tell me that her cancer has spread to her lungs, and there's nothing more doctors can do for her. She traveled to M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, in Houston, Texas. and was sent back home. They had no treatments to offer her. There's very little research being done on ACC , because of how rare it is. My Mom doesn't have a choice on what type of cancer she has, but should have the same shot at a cure than anyone who suffers from any type of Cancer. I decided that we had to do something. With many dedicated friends and family ATTACK ACC was born . All of the money raised will be sent to the University of Virginia Comprehensive Cancer Center. They are one of the few Cancer Centers in the United States that have dedicated themselves to doing research on Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma. We are very excited to be hosting our 2nd annual 5 mile fun run/walk tournament on
Sept. 6, 2008. Everyone is welcome.

Because of your generous support we were able to send $10,000 to the University of Virginia
from the 2007 Walk/Run. Thank you for your continued support.
