Update
Received this email update tonight:
The Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation, Step Up Women's Network and Merck & Co, Inc - on behalf of "Make the Connection" - thank you for your enthusiasm and interest in this public education campaign to raise awareness of cervical cancer and its connection to human papillomavirus (HPV). So far, we have received over a million requests for materials and bracelet kits from concerned advocates like you.
We are grateful for the outpouring of support and the public’s commitment to the campaign. We are in the process of fulfilling orders to ensure as many requests as possible are fulfilled as quickly as possible. We hope all of our supporters will receive their orders by early 2007.
As we near the end of 2006, a year where much progress has been made to raise awareness of the connection between cervical cancer and HPV, we would like to take a moment to highlight January as Cervical Cancer Awareness Month. This is a time for everyone to "Make the Connection" with their loved ones and friends. We encourage you to talk to your healthcare professional about ways to help prevent cervical cancer and HPV.
Again, our deepest appreciation for your interest in "Make the Connection."
