| John, My husband, John, was diagnosed with prostate cancer at 53 years old. In just three months, my handsome, funny, and kind husband was gone. As I write you, John's wedding ring hangs from a chain around my neck. This is my first September without John. When you lose a loved one, there are many devastating "firsts." Your first holidays, birthdays, and even everyday tasks have a tinge of absence — like walking the dog without your loved one. I want to stop other families from experiencing this loss. But I can't do this alone. I need YOU. Too many men are being lost to this deadly disease. Our best line of defense is getting tested, which is why I'm asking you to donate today to help men get checked. With ZERO's donation match in September, every gift is doubled. Giving a gift will help 1,500 men receive free testing for prostate cancer. John, your gift will change lives. As my family and I grieve, we are determined to honor John and continue his fight. With your help, we can make sure no one else goes through what we did. Another family is counting on us to make sure their husband, father, grandfather, and brother will be here for years to come. The need is urgent, as many men have no idea of their risk of the disease. This is the best time to donate — your gift is doubled if you act now! Catching prostate cancer early is critical to a man's health, and this can only be done through testing. Together, let's give today to help save lives. Thank you for being part of this generous and caring community! With heartfelt gratitude, Laurel Philibin,
John's Loving Wife
