Text of the certificate is included below:

"It is with great pleasure that I recognize Lynch Syndrome International and their critically important efforts to raise awareness about Lynch Syndrome and the causes of cancer. Since its inception in July of 2009, LSI has been a strong advocate for cancer patients and creating awareness about Lynch Syndrome, which is a hereditary condition that significantly increases one's likelihood of contracting cancer. Though its education and advocacy, LSI has been a leader in promoting cancer awareness, cancer screenings and early treatment; resulting in better health outcomes and increased hope for those afflicted. On behalf of the people of California's 10th Congressional District, please accept my sincere gratitude for Lynch Syndrome International's admirable service, as well my best wishes for their continued success in the years ahead."
