In the second half of Kicking Cancer Cares, we continue the conversation around Anti-Cancer Living—sharing practical ways these principles show up in real lives and real stories. We also shine a light on upcoming events that support our mission, including the Golf for Life Tournament on June 28th for Go Team Elena, and our 1st annual Gala of Colors on October 5th.
