Kate Koogler Canine Cancer Fund

Save the Date:
The 10th Annual Kate Koogler Canine Cancer Ride
will be
Saturday, June 15, 2013!

 

January 6, 2013
Dr. Teresa Lee Koogler, president of The Kate Koogler Canine Cancer Fund, Inc. presents Dr. Jaime Modiano researcher at University of Minnesota with a check for $25,000.00. This money represents the $9500.00 raised at this year’s 9th annual motorcycle ride fundraiser and a portion of the $25,000.00 that The Kate Fund received as a grant from Petco Foundation. The money will be used to fund research into the causes and treatments of already existing naturally occurring bone related cancers in dogs. Bone cancer in dogs and people are identical so the research is directly applicable to human cancer research as well. The Kate Fund has donated more than $100,000.00 to cancer research since its inception in 2002 thanks to all of our loyal sponsors and participants. The Kate Fund’s partnership with Petco Foundation will allow us to broaden our fundraising efforts for the future in addition to the 10th motorcycle ride in June 2013. We are also planning a much different event on Carroll Creek at the Amphitheater on September 28, 2013. Stay tuned for more information and check us out at http://www.katefund.org/ as details unfold.

This is the most fantastic news ever! Thanks so much Petco - they came to us and asked us to submit an application for part of a $50,000.00 grant. And they gave us half of the grant - $10,000.00 more than
we asked for. Dr. Modiano at the University of Minnesota is so happy to be able to move forward on a current project with this kind of support. Opens a lot of new doors with The Kate Fund's association with a national organization!

With warm regards,
Teresa Koogler.
