Grateful for the positive things Breast Cancer brought to our lives.

…….a wonderful program that demonstrates a purpose and meaning as well as a way to give back to our community.  This is how one person described our bag building workshop….


We visited Genesis Health Care High Gate at Paoli Point for the bag building workshop last week. The ladies all enjoyed the activity and made some beautiful Bows for use on our bags. One resident helped me cut the linings for several bags.                                                Jessie was out on the road at this event along with 2 other volunteers who helped with the process.








       






 One  volunteer that worked with us was also a survivor. She also likes to sew and now works on bags almost as much as Jessie does. I think the experiences we go through really do shape us and mold our lives. This experience with caring for my Breast Cancer survivor is the thing that has led us to ….making bags…visiting nursing homes, senior centers, middle schools….. Meeting wonderful supporters who donate fabrics and supplies… & excited volunteers who process and help keep us organized.


 Grateful for the positive things Breast Cancer brought to our lives.
