In memory of Tamara Goosens - Donation

To members of the Health and Social Services Standing Committee / Executive Committee,
NGOs in the Health & Social Services Sector

Dear Colleagues,

It was my sad duty to inform you at the end of May that our colleague Tamara Goosens was no longer with us. Many colleagues have expressed the wish to make a donation to a suitable organization, Tamara herself would have liked to support. We have with the help of our Dutch colleagues from ABVAKABO identified Pink Ribbon.

Pink Ribbon is a foundation in the Netherlands which is promoting and financing:
- projects on awareness on breast cancer,
- projects to improve care and wellbeing of breast cancer patients,
- research on prevention and early detection of breast cancer.

The Pink Ribbon website is in Dutch only. For this reason we propose that you make any donation you wish to dedicate to the EPSU bank account:

Accountholder: EPSU

Name of the bank and address: KBC BANK, Rue Royale 49, 1000 Brussels - Belgium - IBAN: BE62437620094261 - BIC : KREDBEBB

with the special mention ‘ in memory of Tamara Goosens ’.

We will collect donations until 10 December 2010 and the total amount collected will be transferred to Pink Ribbon.

With many thanks for your support and consideration

Best regards

Carola Fischbach-Pyttel
General Secretary
