Buffalo Support Group *LOCATION CHANGE* Our support group has officially outgrown our current meeting space and will be moving to the DENT Tower at 3980 Sheridan Drive (click here for a map) beginning on March 24. As always, the group will meet on the 4th Tuesday of the month from 7:30-9pm. Support groups offer important information about coping with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, and provide a community of support for individuals and their loved ones. Our goal is to help alleviate fears and concerns through education and group discussions.

Dash's Market Tape Saver Program
Dash's Market will help the CCFA/WNY by contributing $5.00 for every $100.00 in Dash's Market register receipts. The program will begin with an initial redemption of $5,000.00 in tape value. I think that this could be a worthwhile fund raising project and am willing to coordinate/facilitate it. Needless to say, I am personally quite far from the $5,000.00 needed to begin, but, if among the readership of this newsletter there are a number of Dash's shoppers, let's combine our tapes and get going. A couple of ways to go about it: either send me a bunch of saved tapes and I'll do the accounting or save $1,000.00 worth of tapes and send them then. Marcia Finton
