First of all I would like to say this is a cause that has touched me in many ways. Since volunteering here I have learned some valuable information that I did not know before and have met some wonderful people that are also cancer survivors. The amazing thing is you would not have known without asking! They make you feel at home, it's laid back and I look forward to coming here almost everyday. Even though I said I was only going to do this a few hours, a couple days a week! I love helping them out...lol
