Seven Week Challenge

I “signed up” - it’s painless - just a few clicks of the mouse. If you can, too - that would be great.

Thanks!

The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network is launching a bold new initiative designed to advance research into the disease faster than ever before. Through this initiative, called “Your Seven Week Challenge: Make Pancreatic Cancer History”, you have the opportunity to bring hope to everyone touched by the nation’s fourth leading cancer killer.

By participating in Your Seven Week Challenge, you will help us raise national awareness for pancreatic cancer, and increase critical support for the Pancreatic Cancer Research & Education Act – groundbreaking legislation that would dramatically increase funding for pancreatic cancer research, and that may eventually lead to a cure.

Your Seven Week Challenge is easy and will take only a few minutes of your time during the seven-week period. To get started, sign Your Seven Week Challenge Pledge, and commit to completing one quick action a week. During each of the seven weeks, we will send you a reminder e-mail with easy instructions to complete that week’s action. The tasks we’ll send you are simple, such as placing a phone call, transmitting a fax or sending an e-mail. Through your efforts, you will join thousands of others who are participating in the Challenge, enabling us to speak with one loud, unified voice.

Completing Your Seven Week Challenge brings rewards in addition to heightening awareness of pancreatic cancer. If you complete all seven actions, you will automatically be entered into a drawing to win our grand prize: a $250 gift certificate for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network online Store. The drawing will be held on April 28th.

Working together, we can make a real difference in the lives of the many thousands of people who are currently battling pancreatic cancer, and thousands more who will face the disease in coming years. Please sign Your Seven Week Challenge Pledge to begin TODAY and send this email to your friends and family to ask them to join us, as well.

Together we can Make Pancreatic Cancer History!

Sincerely,

Julie Fleshman
President and CEO

    Thanks for posting this! My dad died of this horrible disease 3 months after being diagnosed. He was just 50 years old. I just turned 50 this year and realize now how really young he was. I have forwarded the pledge information to all my family and friends. I’m sorry for what pancreatic cancer did to your Allen, to you, and to all of us. Lisa

    […] Help out if you can for pancreatic cancer research? There is a 7-week challenge going on, that requires but a few seconds of your time at a keyboard. Karbon Kounty Moos tells you all about it. Small things really do make a difference. The keyboard can be mightier than the sword. […]
