RALEIGH, NC, January 30, 2011 (Press-News.org) Worldwide Express (www.wwex.com), a global air and ground shipping company with more than 150 franchises in the United States, is contributing $10,000 to the recently established nonprofit 1in9 (www.1in9.com). Started in 2010, the organization strives to financially support women enduring breast cancer treatments in a means that removes the red tape.
"There are a number of outstanding organizations dedicated to breast cancer research. While many are worthy of support, we chose to fund 1in9 because the money goes toward women who are less fortunate financially and battling breast cancer," says Tom Madine, Worldwide Express president and COO. "Worldwide Express is honored to be a sponsor of 1in9, and to be able to contribute to an organization where our support can immediately assist patients in need."
Proceeds from 1in9 are donated to patients in ways that will ease the emotional and financial burdens related to cancer care. Examples include: transportation assistance, lodging, food and medical co-pays.
