Crop for a Cure Results
Cancer is a disease that has effected just about everyone in one form another. I have personally lost one Grandmother to breast cancer while the other has survived and is doing well after a mastectomy. I am very fortunate we are making leaps and bound in the treatment of cancer especially breast cancer. For all the advances we still have huge mountains to climb.
Whenever there is a benefit that raises money for cancer research I am on board. When you combine a benefit with a crop it is a complete no brainer. I spent the day with my sister-in-law and friends working on lots of pages and being inspired by the creativity that filed the tiny little community center in Boelus, Nebraska.
Boelus is a tiny little town in rural Nebraska with a population just north of 200 people. The claim to fame is the Gold Nugget bar and restaurant formerly known as the Golden Nugget before the restaurant was sent a letter about copyright infringement or some foolish thing by the “Golden Nugget in Las Vegas. LOL!!!!
Anyway the tiny little town hosted a cancer benefit that raised over $1600 in 2008. Jenny, the coordinator for this event was hoping to at least match her last years numbers. Instead that goal was crushed. The crop raised ober $2200. Thank you Jenny for working so hard on this event. I had a great time and I am so proud to be a part of event that is working to help fund a cure for cancer.
