Susie's Cause: The Susan Cohan Colon Cancer Foundation
NOVEMBER 2009  
Hello

As we near Thanksgiving and the end of the year, we cannot express how grateful we are to all of you for the time and money you have given this year in growing the mission of Susie's Cause and spreading awareness about colon cancer.
Susie Cohan

We are growing in numbers, thanks to you, and because of your compassionate efforts, we are making great strides in moving our organization forward. It amazes, and humbles, me to see how much support we have received just in the past few months through our newsletters, social media, and event fundraisers that have been crucial to getting the word out, raising money, educating people about colon cancer detection and prevention, and sharing stories with one another.

Every story that is shared, every screening that is received, every dollar that is given… helps us get closer to eradicating this dreadful disease.

We thank you so graciously for sharing in this cause with us with committed effort and generosity, helping us continue in our mission to fight colon cancer in loving memory of Susan Cohan.

Thank you for your committed support and compassion for our organization.

Have a healthy and wonderful Thanksgiving!

Robert A. Smith
Executive Vice President
