Kentucky CancerLink was happy to host sponsors and supporters at the Heroes of Hope reception at the Whitaker Bank Ballpark Kentucky Ale Taproom on Thursday, December 8, 2016.

Thank you to event sponsor, Forcht Bank and also a special thank you to Grogan's Healthcare Supply.

We are able to be a link to hope to Kentuckians in need of screening or on a cancer journey due to the generosity of others.  We are so very thankful for the support!

Patient Services

We loved the opportunity to work with this lovely lady to choose a wig that is the PERFECT look for her!

Clients coming in to our Patient Services room is definitely a highlight of our day. There are tears, laughter and always a hug.  It's a gift for us to be able to provide such comfort to those in need of a link to hope.

UNTIL there is a cure for cancer, Kentuckians need help TODAY!

THANK YOU!

Shout out to our Community Partner, Barrett and Co. School of Hair Design for working with us on our wig program!
