Elekta Charity Event Raises Funds for Cancer Awareness
The October 31st fundraiser in Chicago was held after Elekta’s 2009 Radiation Oncology Users Meeting (ROUM) and pulled in another $20,000 in matching funds from Elekta, for a grand total of $45,972
“It was a phenomenal gesture for Elekta to host the Charity Bash and further the cause of All Are Our Heroes ,” said David Greer, the Georgia media and marketing entrepreneur who wrote the song All Are Our Heroes and founded the Heroes project. “This project had humble beginnings and we certainly dreamed of it reaching around the world. Elekta has played a big part in that by bringing its message of support to its audience.”
Many of the 1,647 who attended the event also participated in Elekta’s 18th ROUM, the premier meeting for radiation oncologists, nurses, physicists and therapists in town for the 51st American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) Annual Meeting.
