New Year for CCHL!

The Cancer Center for Healthy Living is excited to be starting 2010! We want to start the year by remembering those who fought their cancer with strength and courage. The link below is to my fundraising page. It is my hope to start this year very positive and donate to our organization so that we can continue to help those touched by cancer live life to the fullest. Specifically, you can make a donation in honor of a survivor or to all cancer survivors.
