The Fort Scott Area Chamber of Commerce invites members and guests to a Chamber Coffee and Ribbon Cutting this Thursday, February 27th at 8am to celebrate the new location of Care to Share Cancer Support Group, The Sharing Bucket, 9 E. Wall St., in the Downtown Historic District. Coffee, juice, and light refreshments will be served along with a door prize drawing.
Care to Share started in 2007 as a grassroots volunteer organization to support cancer survivors, their families, and caregivers. The organization hosts a quarterly cancer support group meeting; however, it serves cancer families daily providing financial and emotional support, meals, and gas vouchers or transportation to and from doctor appointments out of town. Care to Share serves Bourbon, Linn, and Crawford counties in Southeast Kansas.
This week’s Coffee will feature Care to Share’s new location where their office is open weekly Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 11am to 2pm. They now have a gift shop of cancer support items, and the location also features a wig room, a kitchen, and a boardroom. Care to Share is excited to host the community this week and is thankful to have all the on-site amenities to serve cancer patients and survivors in the area.
Contact the Chamber of Commerce at (620) 223-3566 for more information. Visit the Events Calendar and category of Chamber Coffees on fortscott.com for upcoming locations.
