What an incredible night we had supporting the Cassie Hines Shoes Cancer Foundation in Michigan at their 5th Annual Gala where donors bid feverishly to win bucket list trips and experiences in support for a great cause!
The mission of the Cassie Hines Shoes Cancer Foundation is to support young adults with cancer from the beginning of their battle to life beyond cancer. Engaging in support groups involving peer interaction, especially young adult cancer camps, can provide them with tools that will help them manage the emotional side of their battle and allow them to feel like they are back in charge of their own life.
The foundation's goals are to provide to young adults with cancer:
Base2Summit: A 6 day experience in Northern Michigan
Travel expenses to cancer camps and conferences
Age appropriate peer support groups and cancer information
Guidance on scholarships and other financial assistance
Our purpose is to direct and encourage young adults with cancer to engage and take advantage of these programs and services.
