Felicia Penner, GM of Days Inn & Suites in Winkler, tells us why she contributes:

 

 

Your support goes towards weekends like the Family Weekend

 

 

We first met Janelle at the Family Camp Weekend 2016 - Here's an update on how she is doing and she will tell you what your support means to her and her family.

 

 

Janelle's mom, Leanne Haviland told us that Janelle likes the Family Weekend because she when she meets with her friends, she doesn't have to answer any questions about why she is sick or how she is feeling and explaining about her hair loss.  They just play.

 

Leanne Haviland shares the value of having Candlelighters by their side during Janelle's cancer journey:
