It will also go to activities that foster CCA\u2019s mission of giving hope \u201csuch as every month there are survivor meetings; they meet and talk to each other and form a network where we can help each other.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>McDonald\u2019s Saipan general manager Marcia Ayuyu said they have been donating gift certificates and other forms of donation to the MMAC for many years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year we decided to donate $1,000 and it\u2019s for them to use for cancer victims,\u201d Ayuyu said.<\/p>\n<p>Ayuyu\u2019s son, Joe Ayuyu Jr., said it is a good cause to donate for. \u201cWe\u2019d like to thank the family of the CCA for being here and look forward to working with them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ambyth Group\u2019s donation is their first time to support the MMAC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWere very happy that it\u2019s their first time to become major sponsors for the MMAC and we look forward to working with them,\u201d Borja said.<\/p>\n<p>Precision Medical Imaging, a medical company in the process of making a new medical center here in the CNMI, also got onboard this year\u2019s MMAC with a $1,000 donation. It is set to hold a grand opening for its new medical center in the next few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Joining Precision Medical Imaging in supporting MMAC is Saint Michael\u2019s Medical Response, which also put in $1,000.<\/p>\n<p>Precision and Saint Michael\u2019s president Joseph Santos was pleased to be a sponsor of this year\u2019s MMAC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSaint Michael\u2019s has been donating to the MMAC since the day we opened our doors back in 2008 and up \u2019til now we still donate. For Precision, we thought of becoming a sponsor as well because we\u2019re in line with medical imaging. We will provide diagnostic imaging services to the community soon, and our brand new CT scanner will hopefully be able to detect cancer sooner and the sooner it is detected the sooner the intervention can start,\u201d Santos said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a wonderful opportunity to give back to the community, and its really a no-brainer to donate to the MMAC because it\u2019s for a good cause,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Borja said this is Precision\u2019s first time to become a major sponsor \u201cand we\u2019re very happy to have them onboard and Saint Michael\u2019s as well since they have been contributors to the MMAC for awhile now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s MMAC title sponsors are Bank of Guam, Delta Air Lines, DFS Saipan, Ltd., GPPC, Island Apparel, IT&amp;E, Joeten Daidai Foundation, Marianas Variety, Sorensen Media Group, and Take Care\/FHP.
