Hi Friends,
We are rounding the corner to the end of the summer and I can't believe how fast the time has gone. I'll be moving my oldest son into the dorms at UK in 2 weeks and my youngest son will be a freshman in high school - new phases of life ahead!
Speaking of phases, I was able to spend some time with a very special group, the Thursday Group - the longest running breast cancer support group in Kentucky whose members played key roles in the Kentucky Breast Cancer Coalition going to Washington DC decades ago to advocate for more support for breast cancer resources. Being in the presence of 30+ year survivors and listening to stories from such amazing women was very heartwarming and inspiring.
We are still in planning mode for our Links to Hope Golf Scramble at Keene Trace Golf Club - Keene Run on Tuesday, September 19th. If you would like information on how to get involved - be sure and visit that section of the newsletter. If you can't join in and play, there are meaningful ways to be involved as a hole sign sponsor!
This month's WKYT story highlights a new partnership with the Zinnia Project - founded by Sarah Lister. Be sure to watch the Link to Hope segment below to learn how we are working to support each other - and grow!
I am thankful for you following along with our mission. Together we can be a link to hope to our friends and neighbors in Kentucky.
Grow where you are planted,
Melissa
