We are extremely pleased to announce that U.S. News & World Report ranked Doernbecher’s pediatric hematology/oncology program 28th in the nation out of 200 children’s cancer programs in their recently released “Best Children’s Hospitals” for 2010-11. The longstanding support of organizations like KDCCP is integral to this special recognition.
Incoming PNW Governor, Frank Morehouse names Kiwanis Children's Cancer Program as the 2010-2011 Governor's Project. Dr. Linda Stork was the featured speaker at Timberline Lodge during the Lt. Governors training session last weekend, and discussed the importance of the Fellowship Programs at research and teaching hospitals like Doernbecher. The two other research/teaching hospitals in the PNW District are Seattle Children's Hospital, and the University of B.C. in Vancouver. Representatives from the KDCCP board will begin working with Washington and British Columbia Kiwanians to help them get started.
Featuring Andy Quinn
Andy Quinn
Andy Quinn is the "President of the Class" of incoming Lt. Governors, and is a member of the Courtenay B.C. Kiwanis Club (Division 15). During the dinner at Timberline Lodge last Saturday evening, and after Dr. Stork's presentation, to recognize Andy's contributions to Children's Cancer in his home on Victoria Island, the Lt. Governors passed the hat and raised $513. Rather than taking it home and putting it to good use there, and in the spirit of the Governor's Project, he donated the money to Dr. Stork and asked her to use it to help fund the Kiwanis Fellowship Program. Thanks Andy, we're looking forward to seeing you again.
