The Oral Cancer Foundation is pleased to have developed partnerships with two highly visible Hollywood stars to raise awareness of a disease of which too few people in the U.S. have ever heard. Academy Award winning actor, Michael Douglas, who has recently completed successful treatment for an advanced oral cancer, and Emmy and Tony Award winning actress, Blythe Danner, who lost her husband to the same disease have partnered with OCF to send a very important message about screening and early detection of oral cancer to the American public.

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® will celebrate its 14th annual FedEx/St. Jude Angels and Stars Gala, by welcoming back model and television personality, as well as co-founder, Daisy Fuentes, for an evening of fine dining and Latin music at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 14, at the Intercontinental Hotel in downtown Miami. The annual event raises funds to help ensure families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
Cuban-born American journalist and one of Time magazine’s “25 Most Influential Hispanics in America,” Cristina Saralegui, will be recognized for her commitment to giving back and educating the Hispanic community. “Being recognized by St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is a true honor. Lending my voice to matters that touch my heart is what’s it’s all about. These children need our help and they need your help,” said Saralegui.

their self worth. Yeah, I wrote this for my sistas, but its intention
is out of kommon respect for ALL women. Directed by Edward Osei-Gyimah

The youngest of the Last Dance cast, Aliix was a Navy brat who was born
in Switzerland but ended up in a tiny country town in the US during her
teen years. So small, in fact, it could barely contain her. She had
nightmares of being trapped there forever - but that was soon to
change. And that change came with a high price. Personal Quote:

As part of its fresh-from-the-farm video and recipe series, “California Grown” is releasing a new video featuring Cecchini & Cecchini Farms of Brentwood, Calif., the only remaining asparagus farmer in Contra Costa County.
The video series, which highlights California farmers and the real stories behind some of California’s favorite agricultural products, was started last year as part of an ongoing effort to connect consumers to the people and families that produce the locally grown foods they enjoy.
In the newest video, Barbara Cecchini shares what she loves about farming in California, how her family got involved in their farming operation, what sets their asparagus apart from products grown in other regions, and why she feels it’s important to buy California-grown products.
