Review for Jeffrey's Voice, Inc., Ponte Vedra Beach, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I am privileged to serve on the Board for this wonderful organization, whose only mission is to find a cure for leukemia and other blood cancers. In just a year, Nancy Horne, the founder and President of this non-profit, mobilized the community to raise the funds necessary to establish the Jeffrey's Voice Leukemia Research Fund at the Winshape Cancer Center at Emory University. The organization is dedicated 100% to its mission and operates with nearly no expenses.
