EVENTS

JFECF hosts events to help be true to our mission.  Some events raise awareness; some raise funds to support researchers and doctors; and some inform and educate others on what is happening in the esophageal cancer universe.  Also, we will have some fun opportunities to make sure that Joyce's spirit is kept alive. ​We believe that Joyce would want us to have fun.  We commit to including those four pillars in all of our events.
