We need your help!
FUNDRAISER: Charlotte Maxwell Clinic
As we approach the holiday season I would like once again to ask you, my dear friends and clients, for your help in supporting our fundraiser for the Charlotte Maxwell Clinic. A long-time friend of mine and a client of Vero, Melbra Watts is the Board President of the clinic. Their goal is to empower and help homeless and low-income women who are battling cancer. Many of you have told me stories of facing the challenges of cancer, and when Melbra spoke with me of some of the difficulties faced by those who do not have the means to fight this battle, I was very touched and wanted to help. . .
So here I am, once again, asking for your generosity to help a worthy cause.
The Charlotte Maxwell Clinic is a State-licensed free clinic and 501(c)3 organization that provides free access to integrative cancer care and health education for low-income women who have been diagnosed with cancer. It is named in honor of a local public health advocate who, while undergoing medical treatment for ovarian cancer, had the insight and wherewithal to bring together a diverse team of holistic and caring practitioners to support her through her journey. Ms. Maxwell died in 1988, but not before inspiring an organization of volunteer practitioners to provide integrative care services to women who could otherwise not afford them.
For over 25 years, the Charlotte Maxwell Clinic has been complementing mainstream traditional treatments that fight cancer with a range of integrative modalities such as acupuncture, herbs, homeopathy, bodywork, guided imagery, movement, and nutritional therapies that treat the side effects. Today, Charlotte Maxwell Clinic’s mission is more important than ever as its clients range from the homeless to the working poor with numbers that are growing by 50% each year.
Vero is sponsoring this fundraiser that includes a Raffle, and it has wide support from the community as evidenced by the valuable services donated by several businesses and individuals. Below are details of the Raffle and the prizes that you can win for your generous donations. Each raffle ticket is only $5 —or— you can get five tickets for only $20! You can donate when you visit Vero, or better yet, you can donate online by following the instructions on this page.
As always, I am grateful for your support and I wish you a very Happy Holiday Season.
Mil gracias,
Veronica
