I am truly honored and humbled by this recognition. πŸ’œ

This moment represents far more than one person it reflects the dedication of the incredible staff, volunteers, board members, community partners, supporters, and friends of the Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center. Every day, we work together to ensure that no one in our community has to face cancer alone.

Serving the people of Downeast Maine and helping individuals and families navigate the cancer journey is not simply my work, it is deeply personal and something I feel privileged to do.

Thank you to everyone who has supported, encouraged, and walked alongside me. I share this recognition with all of you. Together, we continue to make a meaningful difference one person, one family, and one community at a time. πŸ’œ

September is an important month for cancer awareness. πŸŽ—οΈ

Throughout the month, we recognize leukemia, lymphoma, thyroid, prostate, uterine, childhood pancreatic, οΏΌand ovarian cancers. We honor those currently undergoing treatment, celebrate survivors, remember those we have lost, and stand beside the families and caregivers supporting their loved ones.

Awareness encourages education, early detection, meaningful conversations, and support. No matter the type of cancer or where you are in your journey, you do not have to face it alone.

The Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center is here to provide free support, information, resources, and patient navigation to individuals and families affected by cancer.
