SMASHING SUCCESS
Our Pink & Teal roundup continues from October! Thank you to this wonderful group of 24 pickleball players, including four amazing survivors, who rallied together for a Round Robin Fundraiser serving up support for breast cancer. An incredible $2,300 was raised for the “Patient in Need” fund at MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper. Every swing, every serve, and every donation counted towards providing crucial support for patients in need during their cancer journey. Cherry Hill High School West Girls Volleyball Team raised $1,700 to #SpikeOutCancer in a recent game dedicated in loving memory of their friend and team mate. The funds were raised with the support of the Moorestown High School team. We are touched and honored that the girls chose to direct the funds to MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper. This is one of a series of Volleyball and Softball games in the past few years that the Caputo Family has helped organize. SPIKE OUT CANCER!

SPIKE OUT CANCER $25K FOR PATIENT IN NEED FUND TINIS FOR TATAS PRESENTS There was a very special energy in the crowd of survivors and supporters at this year’s “Tinis for Tatas” event, an initiative of Helen’s Angels. Pictured are Dr. Loveland-Jones and Dr. Teralyn Carter, representing MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper. The event was held in October during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The $25K contribution goes to the “Patient in Need” fund which provides small financial assistance grants for transportation, child care, prescriptions and other necessities to cancer patients in need. The grant also provides support for women in cancer treatment who need wigs and cosmetic support while undergoing cancer treatment who could otherwise not afford them.
