I’ve been busy putting the finishing touches on my Warrior Bags.

As part of my Hopeful Warrior Project, I will be delivering the warrior bags to newly diagnosed cancer patients at Northwestern later this month in honor of my two-year treatment cancerversary.

Thank you to all those who sponsored a bag. Because of your generosity, I was able to put together over 30 warrior bags.

Each reusable drawstring bag contains an infusion water bottle, notebook/journal and pen, Lemonheads and information to help connect fighters to local support services.

I’m so excited about how the bags turned out and can’t wait to deliver them.

Announcing the Launch of the Hopeful Warrior Project

The Hopeful Warrior Project’s mission is to help empower patients by giving them access to the right information and local support resources when they need it the most.

 

The Hopeful Warrior Project is my way of giving back and helping to celebrate being two years cancer-free on May 1st.

 Each Warrior Bag will contain the following items:

·      Reusable Drawstring Bag for Treatment

·      Water Bottle

·      Intention Journal

·      Greeting Card

·      Local Resource Guide

You can see the designs and learn more about the Hopeful Warrior Project here.

I also created a fundraiser to help cover the costs associated with launching the Hopeful Warrior Project. Any left over proceeds will go to creating the Hopeful Warrior Fund that will help cover 100% of the lodging expenses for patients currently receiving treatment at Northwestern through need-based stipends.

 My goal is to provide at least 30 Warrior Bags to newly diagnosed patients at Lurie Cancer Center or Anne and Robert. H. Lurie Children’s hospital as part of Northwestern’s AYA program.
