Helping People Live with Cancer
September 20, 2015
Every year for the past four or five years I have had a vendor booth at UNIQUE BOUTIQUE which is a fundraiser for LEE'S FRIENDS. This organization is responsible for many good works on behalf of the cancer community of South Hampton Roads. In January 1977, Lee Harkins, a vibrant 15 year old was diagnosed with Hodgkins Disease. While undergoing treatment she dreamed of helping others and, when she died in 1978, her mother created this program in support of cancer patients and their families. Lee's Friends offers FREE resources to patients of all ages and stages and their families. Although I will not have a booth this year I encourage you to put the date of October 22 on your calendar. There will be many fine vendors and it is a great place to do some quality Christmas shopping!
