Events

The MacKay Foundation for Cancer Research is excited to announce that we will be holding two events this year to benefit blood and marrow, leukemia and hematology research and education at WFUSM, Section on Hematology and Oncology. It is our sincere desire to make a difference in the lives of our family, friends and coworkers who have been touched by cancer. The proceeds from each event will ensure that important cancer research will continue and new research projects will have the seed funding to move forward.
