The annual kickoff was held at the home of Christine Toretti and featured several speakers. This year’s keynote speaker was Lyn Little, who talked about her battle with breast cancer. She said the staff at IRMC and the Women’s Imaging Center is one of the best.

Dr. Dan Clark, Director of Minimally Invasive & Robotic Surgery at IRMC and Director of IRMC’s Comprehensive Breast Center, said this year’s campaign will go towards two things.

IRMC Healthcare Foundation Executive Director Heather Reed said the kickoff event is a great way to show where money raised from the Love of Life Campaign goes to.

The next major event for the campaign is the annual 5K race in Downtown Indiana on Saturday, October 19th at 9 AM. You can register at http://www.loveoflife5k.com. To make a donation to the campaign, you can log on to www.irmc.org/foundation/ways-to-give.
