CURE Media Group, which reaches over 1 million patients, survivors and caregivers across an industry-leading multimedia platform devoted to cancer updates and research, is accepting nominations for the 2019 MPN Heroes® awards. This program honors organizations and individuals who have made a difference in the field of rare blood cancers known as myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) by going above and beyond the standard of care, demonstrating leadership within the MPN community or a commitment to individual patients.
“We are excited to be accepting nominations for this year’s MPN Heroes Recognition Program,” said Michael J. Hennessy Jr., president of MJH Associates Inc., parent company of CURE Media Group. “We are proud to select and recognize another group of exceptional individuals who positively impact the MPN community each and every day.”
Nominations are accepted from the community at large. A panel of judges will review the nominations and pick the finalists and winners in two categories: Commitment to the Individual and Commitment to the Broader MPN Community.
