Today Brad Topol and Sean Laude, the Principal Co-Directors of the Illini 4000, proudly presented Juli Richards from the Eastern Region office of the Illinois division of the American Cancer Society a check for $50,000.

As we approach the end of the year, it is fitting to look back at our accomplishments and triumphs but also take the time to remember those we have lost and those whose lives have been changed by cancer.

Through our contribution we hope that research efforts in fighting cancer will remain strong.

We hope you look towards 2009 with as much as anticipation and hope as we do - Thank you for your support and generosity throughout the year!
