Genesee Cancer Assistance held one of its biggest annual fundraisers this evening at Batavia Downs. It featured a full buffet-style dinner, hosted bar, basket raffles, auction and music from The Trolls.
Above, John Gerace, his wife Rhonda and children Taylor, 16, and Jackson, 13. John, a member of Rotary, is the son of Joe Gerace, one of the founders Genesee Cancer Assistance and also a member of Rotary. Rhonda, too, is a member of Rotary (There, that should be worth some fines.)
Finally a dinner that does
Finally a dinner that does something. The stupid awareness events are a waste of time. Everyone knows cancer exists. We don't need more pink ribbons that say "Save the Boobies!" At least this funds something that will help people and not waste money on marketing.

How does this fund waste money on marketing?
Do you think that Genesee Cancer Assistance doesn't help those with breast cancer (by the way, men suffer from that as well)?
I can assure you that it does, as well as people who suffer many forms of this disease. Do you even know who they are and what they do?
I was supporting the event
I was supporting the event but good job trying to find fault in everything I write.... I forgot a "not" but still it is obvious from the rest of the writing that I was supporting it since it was not an awareness event.
