Description
THE ESOPHAGEAL CANCER EDUCATION FOUNDATION
The Esophageal Cancer Education Foundation (ECEF) www.fightec.org was formed in 2003 by Bart and Virginia Frazzitta. The initial purpose in establishing this 501 C 3 non-profit Organization was to help solicit funds for a CD ROM Project they had committed to fund for Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. The project had a cost of $75,000. This was achieved and it served as the beginning of this Foundation geared to focus on a mission statement that covered three goals, namely:
To bring awareness and educate the public and medical community about this disease
To walk the journey with caregivers and with patients who have this disease
To support research projects that will lead to a test for early detection of this disease and also to hopefully cure this disease.
ECEF has always kept its focus of not having a major expense factor and as such it does not now have any employees and its only major expense has been its web site development and administrative system. We needed to do this to handle the members and patients who have joined ECEF and have availed themselves of the services we provide. We will continue this approach as long as we have the volunteers needed to run an effective and efficient operation. Should this change our goal will be to keep all administrative expenses to no more than 20% of the revenue we have generated.
