A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD

It is a pleasure for me to reflect on 2009 and my first yearas Board Chairman of Us TOO. Jim Kiefert did a fine job of guiding the Board for four years and in his role as Board Chairman he helped provide for a smooth transition by making it a priority that we have a Corporate Plan in place as we ended 2008.

We ended 2008 on a high note as we successfully completed our 5 year pilot program for minority and underserved population outreach and we held our November 2008 Us TOO University in Arizona. During the Us TOO University weawarded our first round of Edward C. Kaps Hope Awards, shared early drafts of new Chapter/Support Group Standards and held top-notch educational sessions.

However, we also faced an unforeseen and rapid downturn in the economy in thelast portion of 2008. As we witnessed dramatic declines in financial markets, we experienced unforeseen financial challenges for US TOO in early 2009. But

we stayed focused andworked together on our new 2008-2011 Corporate Planpriorities.

As we look back we saw a2009 with increased revenue

over 2008, tightly managed expenses and an improved financial position. Wemoved forward with a focus on our mission and plan. In fact, one of the firstthings we did was restructured our Board committees to improve our communication. We moved rapidly to modify and update our Mission Statement to recognize our SEA Blue focus which we developed over the last few years.

We ended 2009 with new resources and materials for our fellow prostate cancer warriors and held a lively and exciting Annual Meeting.

Thanks to all of you who have helped, especially those who left the Board at the end and during 2009 after offering such great service; Jo Ann Hardy,Bob Fidoten, Stu Porter, Tom Hiatt, Bill Palos and Ron Witherspoon.

It was also my pleasure to welcome new Board Members David Lubaroff,Jean Jeffries and Jerry Hardy to our ranks at our Annual meeting. We standready for an active 2010…Us TOO’s 20th Anniversary year.

Sincerely,

Fred MillsBoard Chairman

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO

When I look back on 2009, I am looking back on my 5th year here at Us TOO. It was a pleasure to work with Jim Kiefert when he was Chairman. I want to say thank you Jim for all the excitement and good times during the four years he served as Us TOO’s Board Chairman.

I also want to thank Fred for the fine transition we had as we entered 2009 and share what a pleasure it is to see us continue to move forward. There are many accomplishments

we will share as we present this year’s Annual Report but I do want to mention that this year also started out with inspiration and sadness.

We know prostate cancer is a killer, in fact you all probably know by now it killed my wife Margaret’s beloved father Carl Counts many years ago. I have had the good fortune to meet

many impressive people in my position with Us TOO andrecognize their contributions. At the end of 2008 we were

able to award the first Edward C. Kaps Hope Awardshowever; Bill Blair was not able to travel to receive

his as he battled his prostate cancer.

So, in January, I went with our Chapter Services ProgramManager, Terri Gibbons, to present his award at the DonJohnson Chapter and heard Bill’s last lecture that night.Bill left all of us there that night filled with inspiration and

humility as he talked about life’s purpose.

Shortly after, in February, Bill died and left many,many people saddened but resolved to stay “True to Our Purpose”. In fact, the chapter

renamed itself to honor Bill shortly after his death.

I have to say, we also ended 2009 with that samesense of inspiration, resolve and humility as we held

our Annual Meeting, featuring our first Bill Blair Memorial Lecture, shared

a dynamic meeting with our new Prostate CancerBusiness Leadership Council members, launched

our 20th Anniversary and celebrated the stories of the work done by the second year’s Hope Award winners.

Thank you all including the Us TOO staff and consultants for a memorable 2009,especially Jackie Konieczka who we recognized with the President’s Outstanding

Service Award for her sixteen years as Us TOO’s office manager.

Sincerely,

Thomas N. KirkPresident & CEO

WHAT DID WE TRY TO ACCOMPLISH IN 2009?

True to Our Purpose

The Us TOO Corporate Plan developed and approved by the Board of Directors in 2008 with its focus through 2011 best reflects what we are trying to accomplish. It addresses nine areas:

1) Board DevelopmentThe vision is for Us TOO to have an informed, proactive and balanced Board made up of men and women directly affected by prostate cancer who have competencies in business, fundraising and public relations. The Board Members should be willing to speak publicly about prostate cancer and Us TOO and its mission.

2) Mission StatementOur 2008-2011 plan called for us to examine our Mission Statement. The Board approved the recommended modification of the Mission Statement in July 2009 to read:

Be the leading prostate cancer organization helping men and their families make informed decisions about prostate cancer early detection and treatment through support, education and advocacy.

The Mission Statement made it clear we are trying to help men and their families make informed decisions through support, education and advocacy. Us TOO’s SEA Blue approach is evident in the updated Mission Statement.

3) Chapters/Support GroupsCommunication with the hundreds of group leaders and volunteers is a high priority. The role of the home office is to be a facilitator and provide standards and resources for the independent local groups. Working with more groups is a goal.

4) Awareness and MarketingThe overall desired vision is to have Us TOO recognized as the organization to turn to who supports people at risk for prostate cancer and the men and their families dealing with prostate cancer and to be an active player to beat this disease.

5) EducationUs TOO views education as a form of empowerment of patients, their families and volunteers. The immediate focus is on the 20th Anniversary event in 2010 and also enrich and expand the educational services of the organization such as its newsletters, social communities, the Helpline and educational webinars and teleconferences.

6) Minority and Underserved PopulationsWith the completion of the five year Minority and Underserved Outreach Pilot Program with CDC in the fall of 2008, Us TOO will plan for next steps and continue to utilize contacts and materials developed during the project. Us TOO is committed to the Circles of Loveprogram to support women affected by prostate cancer.

7) AdvocacyContinue to work in collaboration with other groups to move forward to priorities developed in the advocacy plan.

8) Fundraising and Resource DevelopmentDevelop and implement a broad range of options for donors to support Us TOO’s mission.

9) CollaborationDevelop further the collaborations with other groups nationally and internationally to leverage Us TOO’s resources.

Our appreciation to those who

ordered and used Us TOO blue prostate cancer items,

contributed to Us TOO

All of us who contribute time and resources
