Erie Pennsylvania Charity Wins Pepsi Money Grant

The city of Erie has a struggling economy, some depressed ecology, but fortitude in the spirit in which they can contribute to making a difference in cancer charity.

Backers of the Kanzius Cancer Research Foundation won't coast after winning a $250,000 grant from PepsiCo on Saturday.

The Kanzius Foundation's plan is to use radio waves in early detection and treatment as an alternative to harmful chemicals that in the past have been effective, but still took it's toll on the patients lives.

Your support means that the foundation will be able to hire a molecular biologist specializing in targeting cancer cells and a physicist specializing in nanoparticles.

The foundation will also have an infusion of money to do more fundraising, because donations and grants are key to pushing the Kanzius invention forward in the world of cancer research.

Anything that could stop the current way people are treated for this potentially deadly disease I am all for it.
