CancerCare Seeks Wig Donations
Friday, April 02, 2010
CancerCare of Connecticut is collecting new and gently used wigs for women who lose their hair while undergoing treatment for cancer. The organization which provides free wigs to women in cancer treatment is facing critically low inventory levels and seeks to replenish its supply. Their supply of donated wigs has dwindled recently because of the general economic downturn and also probably because wigs have become less fashionable.
If you have one more women's wigs to donate, call Sandra Tripodi at (203) 854-9911 or e-mail her at stripodi@cancercare.org.
CancerCare of Connecticut provides free, professional support services to anyone in Connecticut affected by cancer: people with cancer, caregivers, children, loved ones, and the bereaved. CancerCare programs—including counseling and support groups, education, financial assistance and practical help—are provided by professional oncology social workers and are completely free of charge. Last year more than 3,000 Connecticut adults, children and families were served. Find out more about the organization at www.cancercare.org
