"You make a living by what you get. You make a life by what you give."

Beverly's breast cancer story...
 
"I found out I had breast cancer in February 2017. At first, the news was difficult to hear and process. But, I'm so thankful I had my yearly mammogram done. Because of that, the cancer was caught super early. Fortunately, all I needed was surgery. When my lymph nodes came back clear it was the best news I could have received. Following a consultation with an Oncologist, I was told I did not need any further treatment. I cannot stress enough the importance of women getting their yearly mammograms done. It can absolutely save your life."

If we reach our fundraising goal of $1,000 by October 31st...

Workwise will throw a pizza party for everyone who helped us reach our goal. We kicked off the campaign with a $100 donation. We only need 90 more people to donate $10 each. Or 45 people to donate $20 each. Or 30 people to donate $30 each. Or... πŸ€£πŸ•πŸ•πŸ•

We chose to support Susan G. Komen, in part, because they scored a 95 with Charity Navigator. This means they are financially healthy and trustworthy, so most of your money goes toward ending breast cancer. Not their overhead.

Thank you for your support!
