♥️ What an incredible day and an even more powerful reminder of what community can do.

We are beyond grateful to receive a generous $10,000 donation from 100 Men Club Metro Detroit in support of UCANCERVIVE. This moment wouldn’t have been possible without Daniel Muncey, who nominated our organization at their monthly meeting - an act of belief that means more than words can express.

Because of this gift, we are one step closer to advancing critical cancer research right here in Michigan and continuing the fight for a cancer-free world.

Thank you to Daniel and every member of 100 Men Club for standing with us, believing in our mission, and making a real difference in the lives of so many. Together, we keep pushing forward.
