Join us for the Great Canadian Giving Challenge! 

Dear Glen

How can you turn $1 into $10,000? 

The Great Canadian Giving Challenge runs June 1 to June 30.  Every dollar donated to HopeSpring in the month of June through  <http://hopespring.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=245009009133a608181d89b73&id=013d4f4a3b&e=ece80c31c3> www.canadahelps.org or  <http://hopespring.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=245009009133a608181d89b73&id=88700223fc&e=ece80c31c3> www.givingchallenge.ca is an automatic entry towards a $10,000 grand prize donation.

What could $10,000 do?

Exercise during and post treatment has been show to improve quality of life and help patients recover faster. $10,000 would pay for three months of our suite of exercise programs like our Yoga programs, Tai Chi and Qi Gong.

Eating well during treatment may help keep strength and energy up, improve quality of life, help with speed of recovery and allow for better tolerance of treatment related side effects.  $10,000 would pay for a year of our Healthy Cooking program, offering the program three times a year in BOTH Kitchener and Cambridge.

$10,000 would pay for two years of our Sleep related programming. Managing sleep and fatigue is important when you’re undergoing radiation therapy. The treatment makes the body use more energy to heal itself so effective sleep is even more vital. 

Cancer can be a very stressful life event.  Waiting for a diagnosis, hearing you have cancer, coping with treatment and side effects, being anxious about work and finances and worrying about what the future holds can add up to a large amount of stress.  Learning to manage stress can help improve the quality of life and help with coping.  $10,000 would pay for 4 months of our Stress Management programs like the Healing Journey, the Kids Program and our Women’s Support Group. 

HopeSpring recognizes the financial burden of a cancer diagnosis and all our programs and services are free to those impacted by cancer. We are completely funded by the local community – no government funding, no parent organization.  Our friends and neighbours are our supporters.

Please answer the challenge this June.  Go to  <http://hopespring.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=245009009133a608181d89b73&id=eed96a4724&e=ece80c31c3> http://www.canadahelps.org/en/charities/hopespring-cancer-support-centre/ and make a gift to HopeSpring and help us win $10,000.
