Cancer sucks! Everyone knows that. We've all been effected by this terrible disease at some point in our lives.
As you may or may not know; my dad was diagnosed with Stage 3A Lung Cancer in Jan 2015. In Feb he moved to NH and became a patient at Seacoast Cancer Center. Words cannot express how wonderful and amazing this facitlty and the staff has been. We were able to take advantage of many of the programs they offer which helped us get through this rough time.
On September 27th I’ll be participating in a 5k road race benefiting Wentworth-Douglass Hospital. I’m counting on your donation to help me reach my personal goal. Proceeds from the Seacoast Cancer 5k benefit the Supportive and Wellness Services at Wentworth-Douglass Hospital’s Seacoast Cancer Center, offering patients and their families individualized guidance and support as they cope with cancer diagnoses and treatment. Programs include:
Education
Nutrition
Psychosocial screening
Rehab
Exercise
Support groups
Integrative therapies
Wentworth-Douglass Hospital is committed to significantly increasing the quality of life for those patients receiving cancer-directed treatment at the Seacoast Cancer Center. Please make a donation to help me reach my fundraising goal, every amount helps. To learn more about this event, please visit www.wdhospital.com/seacoastcancer5k.
Thank you, in advance, for your support!! I'm counting on you!
Our Hospital stands on the foundation of Arioch Wentworth's legacy, but the Wentworth-Douglass Hospital of the early 21st century is vastly different from the small Hospital that opened its doors in 1906. Ongoing philanthropy is an essential predicate for progress and growth. With the fierce challenges of operating a successful contemporary healthcare organization the need for broad gift support is greater than ever.
Wentworth-Douglass Hospital's ability to earn and receive generous donations will make us stronger and more resilient than those lacking such a base of support. These gifts will spell the difference between mediocrity and excellence, between adequate facilities and exceptional facilities, between heavy reliance on distant institutions for specialized care and the availability of a full range of services close to our own homes and families. No other gifts will pay such vital, sustained, and universal dividends for the people of the Seacoast region. You and your family can make the difference in assuring this remarkable resource abides for our own time and for the generations to follow.
