Corona is stepping up again this year to work with the Jimmy V Foundation to help find a cure for cancer by donating proceeds for every Corona sold from now until April 3rd.
You can learn about the V foundation here: https://www.jimmyv.org
Here’s an excerpt about what they do;
“The V Foundation for Cancer Research was founded by ESPN and legendary basketball coach Jim Valvano with one goal in mind: to achieve victory over cancer. Since its start in 1993, the V Foundation has awarded over $170 million in cancer research grants nationwide and has grown to become one of the premier supporters of cutting-edge cancer research funds.”
And their Mission;
The V Foundation is a charitable organization dedicated to saving lives by helping to find a cure for cancer. The V Foundation seeks to make a difference by generating broad-based support for cancer research and by creating an urgent awareness among all Americans of the importance of the war against cancer. The V Foundation performs these dual roles through advocacy, education, fundraising and philanthropy.
Vision:
Our vision is to fund extraordinary cancer research to save more lives every day.
In addition to grants and small donations, the foundation’s operations are completely funded by a generous endowment, meaning that 100% of cash donations go straight to cancer research. This means more studies and less red tape.
