Review for Lazarex Cancer Foundation, Danville, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Both my husband and I raised money for our run in the 2009 Seattle Rock n Roll half marathon. We both wanted to challenge ourselves to do this run, but I could not image just doing it for ourselves. I searched thru all the Foundations to run for and this one really stood out to me. This was our first time raising this kind of money and we were so glad to be a part of it. People can be so generous in their giving, it was great to see that. Susan Sappinging with Lazarez was so wonderful! She was there every step of the way. We will be doing another event and raising money again and when we do we will absolutely be doing it for Lazarez. We love that you are there for people when it seems like no one else is. Thanks for doing what you do.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

The Seatlle Rock n roll 1/2 marathon

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

my experience was limited and with what I did experienc it was great, great communication, great information, great people. It is just too bad that since it is so small alot of people have not heard of it before.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

Friendly people and great communication

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

I met susan Sappington and her husband. Both such nice people.

Ways to make it better...

Nothing, everything was great!

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

Getting the word out there on what they do. I met people at the race who fundraise for a living and they were asking me about this organization, saying they had not heard of it.
