I can not express enough my gratitude to Mid West One Bank in Parkersburg for collecting items for Breast Cancer Survival kits. The donations have totally blown me away!!!! Having gone through the breast cancer journey myself three years ago, I want to make sure no one fights alone! The breast cancer survivor kits are delivered to women diagnosed with breast cancer in our area. I manage the Care for Yourself grant which helps women pay for their mammograms & imaging. So I am in contact with many women, when I see the diagnosis of cancer come across my desk for one of the ladies, I literally drop everything & start making a survival kit. I offer my support and start a plan to help get funding to help pay for extra expenses and treatment. Thank you to Mid West One Bank, the employees for the extra time & effort to put the display together and gathering donations for the survival kits! Thank you as well, to Tabitha Swygman, Marcie Sharp, Deb Pearce Kalkwarf, Kathy Clark, Sherri Jackson & Angie Haley for helping me load up the donations.
Thank you for making a lasting impact for so many ladies!!!
NO ONE FIGHTS ALONE!
