Thanks for posting this, what a great organization! I have three nice wigs that I bought at the beginning of chemo and I'm not using any of them! (Thank goodness my health insurance paid for two of them -- those things are pricey!) I've found that I'm most comfortable with a little half-wig/fall thingy (I call it my "wiglet) and hats. I'm going to hold onto the wigs until my hair grows back (just had last chemo tx on Thursday, yay!) just in case I change my mind, but I'll definitely send them your way in a few months.

Thanks to "Wacky Jackie" for her generous donation of wigs to our organization . I am sure they will be very helpful in lifting the spirits of a bc sister going through treatment.
Hugs,

I just received 5 beautiful wigs from a person named Oliva from Chicago , not sure if she is here on the boards with us or a friend of someone on the boards here at any rate many thanks to Oliva.
I am sure that a new or existing bc sister will be very appreciative of your generosity.
God Bless,
Nan

A very special thanks to all who have donated and helped me thus far, my goal this year is to partner with the local hospice/visiting nurse association in our area continuing to spread the word.
I have contacted local oncologists, beauty shops, and women's center chemo directors the response has been very favorable.
Please continue to spread the word this year .
Hugs and God Bless
