Certain patients and families in cancer treatment are working hard to manage daily life and the associated costs.
Some have very young children.
In the spirit of the season…
Please share whatever amount you can by giving to the Compassionate Care Fund at Trillium Health Partners. (If you are one of us in financial constraint, forwarding this email would be a valuable contribution.)
Dancing With Our Scars events
Those who have attended our gala evenings in the past remember the live big band music, dinner with friends, playing Boobs and Butts for great prizes and cheering on the brave dancers and their professional partners – all dedicating their efforts to a cause that our founder, Christine Glen-Coussée (1963-2016), held up with passion and indomitable energy.
This year, Dance and Donate at home
Until we get a chance to be together again, you can dance with the spirit of loved ones. Go to the page www.justgiving.com/fundraising/dwos2020 make a large or small donation (a tax receipt will be emailed to you).
Let us know in the message who you are ‘dancing’ for, pick your favourite tune and DANCE! Let loose in your living room, boogie in the bedroom, get down in the dining room!
Thank you for sharing the ‘good-ness’ in whatever way you can.
This pandemic pause shakes us up and keeps us humble ~ may we be grateful for what we DO have and take a moment to think of those who are struggling.
With the very best to everyone in these strange and unfamiliar times,
Briar Boake
