Wow. What a month. I am truly grateful and humbled by the outpouring of support for COMPASSIONATE HANDS AND HEARTS BREAST CANCER OUTREACH this month. Several local organizations held very successful fundraisers for us:
LADIES OF HARLEY in Clermont held a motorcycle Poker Run called RIDE FOR THE CURE.
The Delta Omicron Omega chapter of ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA Sorority donated proceeds to us from the Breast and Ovarian Cancer luncheon. They're decided to partner with us again next year. Wow.
SALON INXS held a surprise fundraiser for us in the salon, then mailed us a check. Wow again.
Local builder PARK SQUARE HOMES is donating $500 for every new home from the month of October.
LUNATIC FRINGE SALON closed down the salon for an afternoon and pampered our clients who are going through or recently completed treatment. And they made a financial donation ! Double generosity.
Then I got a call this afternoon about an effort called SCRAP FOR THE CURE, local scrapbook enthusiasts who held an event for us over the weekend. Another check is on the way.
I am so amazed at how generous people are. And I realize they know we strive to be good stewards of those donations. 100% of our donations go directly to breast cancer patients and their families in Central Florida. So our donors know they are helping people right here in our community. And we are grateful !
