RIO GRANDE FOUNDATION
SEEKS SOUTHWEST AIRLINE
RAPID REWARD TICKETS
El Paso, Texas, October 19, 2009 - Since 1998, the Rio Grande Cancer Foundation has offered a Patient Airline Transportation Service (PATS) that assists cancer patients when referred outside El Paso county for evaluation, treatment, surgery or diagnostic studies. We are seeking unused Rapid Reward tickets for the benefit of cancer patients who are referred out of El Paso for care. If you have earned a ticket and would like to donate it, please call the Rio Grande Cancer Foundation at 562-7660.
Many challenges face a patient and their family when going through the cancer experience. Through this program, many patients will have one less obstacle to face. Please consider making a donation to this important resource.
The Rio Grande Cancer is a philanthropic organization dedicated to reducing the human and economic impact of cancer on the citizens of El Paso and surrounding communities through the financial support and development of effective programs for advocacy, education, early detection and other services to cancer patients and their families.
