2017 HOLIDAY GIVING CAMPAIGN
by Cancer Support Community Pasadena
Louise Wannier
Please join me in support Cancer Support Community Pasadena this holiday season.
CSCP helps thousands of people and their families facing cancer every year and is free of charge to all participants for all programs.
CSCP offers support groups led by licensed therapists, educational workshops taught by experts, and mind body classes led by volunteers with experience in this field.
Most of all, CSCP offers a community of support to people in our community at perhaps the most challenging time in their lives.
I’m so grateful for this organization, which is why I’m reaching out to you to ask you to consider supporting CSCP.
I’m trying to raise $500 ; it’s not a huge amount, but any amount helps. Thank you for considering a gift to CSCP.

“We all need somebody to lean on…” For Baby Boomers, those seven words can bring back memories of a song that was popular in the early 1970s. And yet, those words are still true today – there are times in life when we all DO need somebody to lean on.
And that’s why I am writing to you, one of our faithful supporters, inviting you to make a gift today to our 2017 Holiday Giving Campaign.
Every day, we see people at Cancer Support Community Pasadena who need support … guidance … someone to lean on. Many have received that dreaded diagnosis: cancer. Others are caring for a loved one who is coping with cancer, and some are struggling to face the holiday season without a spouse, a parent, or a dear friend.
Cancer is never an easy journey, but our passion is supporting people who are on that road. That’s why we’ve set a goal for our 2017 Holiday Giving Campaign to raise $45,000, enough to help 60 people for all 365 days of 2018!
Mardi received her diagnosis of cancer in March 2016. After discussing her treatment plan with the doctors, she recalls, “I wanted so hard for this to succeed that I decided to focus only on treatment. Nothing stopped me from my treatment plan. But one day during radiation therapy, fatigued and trying to hold on to who-knows-what, tears flowed out of nowhere. I knew I needed help.”
Thank you for giving – and making sure we are always there so someone experiencing cancer can lean on us.
