Cancer benefit at Santini plaza Thursday
In this world we have two types of people -people who need help and those that provide help.
Alex Dolinski and his wife Brenda McCann have always been the type of people that help others. In fact, many of us became friends through their kind deeds. As it now turns out, Alex and Brenda need our help during a very challenging time. Brenda has been diagnosed with HER 2+ positive cancer, a very aggressive form of cancer and requires extensive treatment over an extended period of time. We all know what cancer can do, but do you know what it can’t do? It can’t rob Brenda of making the most of every day, and it can’t stop the love we share as friends and family.
So, with that, we’re planning on making the most of two special days in December and show our love and support for Brenda.
How Can You Help?
Save the following dates on your calendar and plan on attending one or both events.
Tell your family and friends and encourage them to attend one or both events.
The Benefit for Brenda Fund is supported by a group of volunteers that recognizes the impact cancer has on human life. We are committed to raising funds to help support Brenda and Alex during their journey to full recovery and inspiring our friends, family and community to bring about a positive difference in their lives as well as other families currently living with cancer.
