Research saves live! Those aren't my words they come directly from the St. Baldrick's foundation -- but those words are very true. Did you know that "each year, 160,000 children are diagnosed with cancer worldwide. Cancer is the number one disease killer of children in the U.S. and Canada." I bring this up because it was around this time a decade ago that a bunch of reinsurance executives were working to turn their annual St. Patrick's Day party into something bigger. It was the kickoff event for what eventually became the worldwide St. Baldrick's foundation. We've accomplished a lot since then but cancer has not gone away so our fight continues. St. Baldrick's and other organizations are doing tremendous things to raise resources and awareness. Let's keep up the fight.

David, we are so grateful for your support. Because of men and women (and teens, and kids) like you St. Baldrick’s has been able to raise more than $71 million for new research and a cure.
My partner and I really enjoyed reading this blog post, I was just itching to know do you trade featured posts? I am always trying to find someone to make trades with and merely thought I would ask.
