It has been revealed in a recent report that a generous family, the Boris family, has donated a sum of $30 million towards a research and cure type patient care clinic based in Mayo. The donation has been done by the Marta and Owen Boris Foundation. It was revealed how the family, which is now giving generous donations, was once struggling a string of personal losses to cancer.

“Our family has had a frustrating concern … watching loved ones die of cancer and other diseases that should be treatable in this age of advanced technology”. Father died of “getting bounced around and having to wait to see more than one specialist”, revealed Les Boris, in the event held at McMaster University.

Cancer is a disease that is plaguing the entire world. There are many people dying of it in all parts of the world. There is need for more awareness drives to be launched to make more and more people aware about the possible preventive precautions against the disease. There is also need for people to get regular health checkups and screenings, which will help in determining if a person is at the risk of the disease.

The family has donated this huge sum of money to the organization, so that there can be more research and development done in the field, and effective cure methods are found against the various forms of the disease. It is essential for one and all to become aware about the grave risk of cancer and give up habits like smoking. It tends to put people at a grave risk of lung cancer. There is also need for more and more people to come forward with such generous donations, which can help the cancer-fighting people in the vicinity.
