I have gained a completely new perspective since meeting Kathleen Quintas. Trust me, if you speak to her, she will open your eyes to one of the biggest needs of families with children battling cancer that is rarely discussed - the need for support. I think we all inherently agree that comprehensive services and support would be a positive thing for families, so ….. what could Kathleen Quintas possibly tell you to change your perspective ….. since you agree with the mission of Here to Serve, Inc. already?? How about the fact that: 1) 15,000 kids were diagnosed with cancer last year and 2) Only 0.001% of billions of dollars in pediatric cancer funding went directly toward supporting families? How about another perspective - if you're contemplating a donation towards a cancer-focused cause - to develop a successful cancer therapy it was recently estimated to take: 1) 10-15 years 2) $1.3 BILLION From now until the end of 2023, Here to Serve, Inc. is working to: 1) raise $30,000, which 2) will allow us to bring on another care coordinator 3) to support up 40 additional families in 2024. Doing some quick math, to develop a new cancer drug: 1) Our $30,000 goal would be spent within the first 2 hours of a 10-year journey, and 2) A single donation of $6,000 would be gone in ~25 min after everyone checked their emails in the lab! Alternatively, at Here to Serve, Inc. ….. 1) Our $30K target will immediately help 40 families next year, and 2) A single donation of $6K can directly help 8 families next year 3) A donation of $750 can help bring on an additional family next year If you’re interested in speaking to Kathleen Quintas to learn more, to get involved (volunteers needed), or you just want to get inspired by one of the most passionate and dedicated people you’ll ever meet, reach out to Kathleen Quintas or me ….. If you’re genuinely interested in supporting a proven, tested, predictably effective option for children and families battling cancer, that can be combined with every other intervention, I promise you will be glad you spoke to her.

There are too many families with children navigating cancer alone. This holiday season, you can help us change that. 🙏 Last year, over 15,000 children were diagnosed with pediatric cancer, but only .001% of funding goes directly toward supporting families going through this harrowing experience. Here To Serve is the only national organization that provides comprehensive services and support to these families through our dedicated family care coordinators. From Giving Tuesday through the end of 2023 we’re working to raise $30,000, which will allow us to bring on another care coordinator to support up 40 additional families in 2024. There are too many families who are shouldering the burden of pediatric cancer alone. Donate now to help more families focus on what matters most – caring for their loved ones. 💛 💙 Donate Now: https://lnkd.in/gac33X5b #holidayfundraiser #yearendgiving
