Broadcasting from The River Club golf course in Suwanee, GA

“We had an INCREDIBLE show today broadcasting LIVE from the Coopers Crew Golf Tournament at The River Club! Thank you Tom Vooris of ChoicesToYou.com for connecting us all. Inspiring doesn’t even begin to describe the guests we had on today’s show!

Mark Myers, Director of Communications for CURE Childhood Cancer started by sharing why Cure is changing and SAVING lives. Mark lost his own daughter to cancer and made a career change to Cure to honor his daughter.

Our second guest was Elena Tate, a two-time pediatric cancer survivor, who happened to benefit from a trial that Cure provided. She also received a scholarship from Coopers Crew that is allowing her to attend Georgia Gwinnett College for pediatric psychology! The craziest part of her story was that her younger sister also battled cancer TWICE!

Last but not least, we interviewed Donna O’Brien, Cooper’s mom. She shared more about all of the amazing things Coopers Crew does for the pediatric cancer community ❤.”
