The speaker at our October 3, 2018 club meeting was Katelyn Tiernan, Community Development Manager, with the American Cancer Society.  She educated our members on all that the American Cancer Society does for cancer patients and their families and spoke about one of their signature fundraising events, "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer." This event celebrates survivors, raises awareness, and fundraises to help save lives and provide free programs/services for cancer patients and their families.  The American Cancer Society works hard every day to provide people battling cancer the resources and support they need.
