New Brochure Coming to Your Mailbox Soon...
Have you been telling your friends about José Carreras and his
efforts to fight leukemia, and wishing you had a pamphlet to pass along? Thanks to the
efforts of several volunteers, a new foundation brochure has been created. We are excited
to have updated material to serve as a “calling card” for the Friends. Within
the next few weeks, each person on the newsletter mailing list will receive several copies
of the brochure. Please keep a copy for yourself, and pass the others along to friends you
want to introduce to the foundation.
Linda Wells, a volunteer recruited through Microsoft, did a tremendous job on the
brochure. The Friends are very grateful for her work. The efforts of Mark Patterson and
Andrea Wallace, who assisted Linda, are also appreciated.

Virginia Ensesa, José’s long-time personal secretary,

You can’t start too early on your holiday
greeting cards! Again this year, the Friends will offer holiday cards to benefit medical
research fellowships. A new design is being created exclusively for us, and we promise to
have them available before Thanksgiving. Final price will be determined by printing costs,
and will likely range $10-15 for 10 cards. For more information contact Diane Sturiale by
e-mail at DIMET1079@aol.com or by
letter at 2 Royal Meadow Lane, Framingham, MA 01701.
Pursuing Press Patrons
Friends to Friends is your source of information about the Carreras Leukemia
Foundation. If you enjoy our regular reports about fellows, board members and
volunteers, why not become a sponsor? $650 underwrites all printing and mailing
costs for one issue. For more information contact Patti Amundson at (206) 667-7108
