By Staff Reports -
Columbus resident Misty Derringer has helped the American Cancer Society for 12 years as a volunteer, but in September she took on a new role that involved traveling to Washington, D.C.
She was part of a delegation that spoke with government leaders about cancer.
The 41-year-old wife and mother was in Washington from Sept. 11 to 13 to take part in the American Cancer Society’s Cancer Action Network Leadership Summit and Lobby Day on Sept. 12.
