What backs it

Jon Avery parks cars at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in Buffalo, New York, and patients say his encouragement helps carry them through treatment. Breast cancer survivor Kate Fink, 41, credits him in part with her recovery. When she heard he was saving up to see a Buffalo Bills game, she and her colleagues at West Herr Automotive Group raised the money and got him tickets and field passes.
