Washington, DC-MD-VA-WV (1888PressRelease)
April 07, 2008 - The birth of Spinning For Life came about when the founder Touraine Lynch was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma while serving on active duty. Spinning For Life is dedicated in providing a suite of information to those battling cancer and those who want to find out information on prevention and life after cancer. When the Board memebers if Spinning For Life chatted with Congressman Wolfe it was personal moment as he discussed his views on cancer funding. Founder Touraine Lynch asked Congressman Wolfe had he ever heard of Non-Hodgin's Lymphoma and his reply was "yes I have my father died on Non-Hodgkin's Lyphoma; back in that time there was not much that could have been done". Mr. Wolfe stated that millions have been appropriated in the funding for cancer research.
Spinning For Life Organization is comprised of advocacy groups, health initiatives, voluntary and community-based health organizations that are dedicated and committed in the fight against cancer. With your help we can help heighten and fight cancer.
Congressman Wolfe is one of the House's leading crusaders for human rights. He is the co-chairman of the Congressional Human Rights Caucus, a bipartisan organization of over 200 House members that identifies and works to alleviate human rights abuses worldwide.
Congressman Wolfe believes members of Congress have an obligation to speak out for those who are persecuted around the world. He has traveled to Ethiopia, Sudan, Sierra Leone, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and other countries in Africa to see firsthand the tremendous suffering of the people at the hands of corrupt governments, war, AIDS and famine. He led the first congressional delegation to Darfur in western Sudan to bring attention to the crisis there, later officially declared by the U.S. government as genocide. He also has worked to call attention to the human rights abuses and religious persecution in the People's Republic of China, Tibet, Romania, Nagorno-Karabakh, Chechnya, Bosnia, Kosovo, East Timor, and the Middle East.
