Tuesday, December 1st is Giving Tuesday.  This is a day set aside in all of the holiday rush for you to support and recognize an organization of your choice.  I urge you to choose Cervivor as the organization you would like to support.

My six year old son, Wylee, has kicked off the #GivingTuesday campaign by picking to give a donation to Cervivor.  We would like to encourage you to do the same!

Did you know that cervical cancer is the 2nd most common cancer in women and is almost 100% preventable? Think about that, according to the CDC over 4,000 women will die in the United States in 2015 of a cancer which is almost 100% preventable!  Your donation to Cervivor could help ensure women have the education needed to help eradicate cervical cancer.  Over the past few years, Cervivor has made it a mission to educate women about the tools they have to prevent cervical cancer: Pap tests, HPV tests and HPV vaccines.

Join Cervivor and learn more about how Cervivor reaches out and works in the community.

Want to know what your donation will do?  Donations will go toward pamper packages for women in treatment, books of hope, scholarships to help women in need attend Cervivor School, and general financial gifts for those in need.

A few examples of how your donation can help:

  • $1,000 sends a woman to Cervivor School;
  • $100 to send a woman in treatment a pamper package;
  • $25 helps us ship out books of hope;
  • $500 for the Cervivor Gift of Giving program - our no-strings-attached financial gift. Women can use this gift for groceries, medical bills, daycare, a spa day, or whatever they want.

So, what are you waiting for?  Head on over and donate to Cervivor for Giving Tuesday!

She can most recently be found fawning over kayaks and daydreaming of returning to whitewater kayaking with First Descents, an organization for young adults impacted by cancer.
