[Hopespringpcsg] FW: What's Happening at HopeSpring Cancer Support Centre This Week?

Mon Apr 1 11:30:25 EDT 2019

Hi all:

See below for the weekly Hopespring e-newsletter.

Our March Support Group Meeting saw 3 new members join us.

As I recall (with the variability in that) 1 was brought by an existing member & 1 found us thru the Motorcycle Ride For Dad by being a biker who has taken part in the ride.

It is in encouraging to see new members finding PCCN W-W by various means.

One member got our cards into a Kitchener LifeLabs facility.

Please remember to spread the word about our group.

Take care,

Glen

Dear Glen,

April marks Cancer Awareness month.

We are HopeSpring, a centre whose doors are open to anyone haloed by the cancer journey - those diagnosed, a caregiver, a family member or friend, a child or coworker, anyone - regardless of race, gender, spiritual belief, sexual orientation or age. All programs and services are free to our members because of your generosity.

As an independent, community organization committed to empowering those whose lives are impacted by cancer, we strive to provide emotional, physical and spiritual well-being supports. Our community's contributions are the reason we exist.

100% of your donation remains in our community and supports our neighbours, friends, family, coworkers and children who are haloed by the cancer journey.

April is our biggest fundraising month - help us achieve our goal by donating through  <https://hopespring.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=245009009133a608181d89b73&id=18f766dc88&e=ece80c31c3> CanadaHelps. CanadaHelps gives your charitable tax receipt immediately and helps us manage our costs. We also accept cash, cheques in person at the Inn of Waterloo and donations made over the telephone.

Will you be the donor who helps us exceed our $100,000 goal in April?
