The Cost of Cancer: The Hidden Financial Burden Imagine battling cancer not only with your body and mind but also with your wallet. The financial impact of cancer treatment on families is immense and often overwhelming. Beyond the immediate medical expenses, such as surgeries, chemotherapy, and medications, there are numerous hidden costs that can strain a family's finances. These include transportation to and from medical appointments, higher utility bills due to increased home stay, and the cost of special diets or nutritional supplements. Moreover, many patients or their family members may need to take unpaid leave from work, resulting in lost income and further financial stress. This economic burden can lead to difficult choices between essential living expenses and necessary medical care. At Fighting Cancer Today, we understand these challenges and are dedicated to providing financial support through our comprehensive programs. From transportation assistance to housing aid, we aim to alleviate the financial burdens faced by cancer patients and their families. Join us in making a difference by donating or getting involved in our community events. Your support can help ensure that no one has to choose between their health and their financial stability.

Suminoe Textile of America is a proud sponsor of the Alzheimer's Association. So many people are effected by this disease. While there is no cure for Alzheimer's, there are ways to bring much-needed joy, connection and meaning to a loved one living with Alzheimer's or Dementia. * The Power of Music: Music is powerful. Studies have shown that music may reduce agitation and improve behavioral issues common in the middle stages of Alzheimer's. Even in the disease's late stages, a person may be able to tap a beat or sing lyrics to a song from childhood. Music provides a way to connect, even after verbal communication has become difficult. * Finding Comfort and Companionship: Animal therapy is an accessible and inexpensive practice that provides a variety of behavioral and emotional benefits for people living with dementia. The therapy has been shown to improve mood and facilitate social interaction. It can also have a calming effect that helps with dementia-related behavioral problems and increase physical activity in people living with dementia. The Alzheimer's Association is currently matching donations... so give what you can to alz.org/match2x

In 2021, the United States saw 1,777,566 new cancer cases. Maryland alone reported 33,665 new cases, with 26,168 in Baltimore County and 16,149 in Baltimore City. Who steps in to care for these patients when they need it most? Let's take a moment to honor the cancer caregivers. They selflessly dedicate their time, energy, and love to support their loved ones on their cancer journey. 53 million Americans provided unpaid care to an adult or child with cancer in 2020: - 61% women, 39% men - 34% boomers - 45% faced financial impacts - 61% juggled employment and caregiving - Caregivers often experience high psychological burdens, financial strain, and emotional stress, providing an average of 23.7 hours of care per week. One of our goals for #GiveMoreon24 is to raise funds to provide resources and assistance to cancer caregivers. We aim to make their caregiving journey easier, allowing them to focus on what matters most—their loved ones. Join us in making a difference! Tag a caregiver you admire, and let's show them our appreciation. Together, we can create positive change and help those who care for others in their time of need.

The power of positive impact. It's inspiring to see an investment in the community turn into potentially life-changing, or even world-changing results. Recently, Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis announced they were relaunching a clinical trial next month, funded in part by Edward Jones, to help prevent Alzheimer's. Since 2016 Edward Jones has donated $11 million in corporate funds to impact research in the lab, in the clinic and in the community at Washington University, including two research grants that aim to better prevent, detect and treat Alzheimer's. In honor of Alzheimer's and Brain Awareness Month in June, I thought I'd share some other interesting facts that you might not know about our alliance with the Alzheimer's Association: 📞 Did you know the Alzheimer's Association has a 24/7 Helpline (800.272.3900) that provides information, resources, crisis assistance and emotional support for those living with dementia, caregivers, families and the public? At Edward Jones, we also have our own dedicated 24/7 Alzheimer's Association Helpline just for our clients and colleagues to call if they are ever in need of crisis assistance or decision-making support for themselves or loved ones. 📣 We have more than 500 regional coordinators at Edward Jones who champion our efforts across 600+ Walk to End Alzheimer's events across the country, rallying 12,000+ walkers to join 3,000+ Edward Jones teams and raise more than $3 million every year. 💻 Edward Jones offers an e-learning course on the Alzheimer's Association website to learn about the "10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer's," which you can find here: www.alz.org/edwardjonesedu At Edward Jones, we're in the business of helping families build and preserve wealth, and Alzheimer's is a great threat to the health and wealth of our clients. We refuse to stand idly by and let this disease destroy the financial security and future hopes and dreams of the families that we serve. We hope our efforts with the Alzheimer's Association will continue to make a positive impact today and in the future. Learn more about our partnership here: www.edwardjones.com/alz.

Introducing our magnificently moustachioed team. Here at OLS, we’ve marked Movember by curating beautifully bushy, terrifically tended top lips. It’s Movember’s mission to change the face of men’s health, and we wanted to help in our own small way, by donating per ‘tache grown. Also during this month, to bring attention to the health issues men face, our Mental Health SRC team has run Tea and Talk sessions devoted to discussing men’s health in the UK. And here’s why… • Men die on average 4.5 years earlier than women • One man dies from prostate cancer every 45 minutes • Almost 35,000 men are estimated to be living with or beyond a testicular cancer diagnosis Movember funds important projects around the world, with funding prioritised for the three biggest health issues facing men: mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer. Read more about the cause, and where the money goes. https://uk.movember.com/ #Movember #MensHealth
