Cancer Research
Cancer has become one of mankind’s greatest enemies. It has affected each and every one of us, whether it be a family member, a friend or even ourselves.
Norman Burkett, General Grand Chapter Committee Member, is part of the General Grand Chapter Cancer committee. He has shared that Georgia OES members have done an amazing job fulfilling our obligation to give to our Sisters and Brothers aid in their misfortune through the Cancer Aid fund. The Cancer Aid fund provides support for individual Sisters and Brothers battling this enemy, but supporting cancer research helps us aid all members of our human family now and for the future as well.
