Since none of your money is going to this venture unless you donate then why all the concern? If it was announced that the Cleveland Clinic was opening a satellite hospital in TV and needed volunteers and benefactors, there would be nothing but praise for how our community was moving up in the world of health care. Why should a well respected cancer center be any different?

I still think the distrust that seems to be shown on this forum for Moffitt is a general mistrust of the Morse family. To me the Moffitt center addition is no more a part of Morse Inc. than was Wal-Mart (when we already had a Target) or Bonefish (when we already had Red Lobster) etc. Companies of all types realize the great potential in our huge older adult population. If you have a service you bring it to where the consumers are!
