Our First Cancer Center Donation!!!

We are celebrating our first donation of our Pillowcases to the UC Davis Cancer Center today! We were able to take 20 cases for our first donation! Woo Hoo!!! We hope to be able to add more each month, but we also hope to be able to add cancer centers too! Once our complete incorporation comes through we hope that we will be able by the help of donations to increase the cheer spread around to those fighting for their lives!!! With cheer can come hope, and with hope, strength!

We would also like to share with you Aunt Willie's life verse. It is inspiring and hope giving all on it's own. Praise be to God.

“but those who hope in the LORD

will renew their strength.

They will soar on wings like eagles;

they will run and not grow weary,

they will walk and not be faint.”
-Isaiah 40:31

Again we appreciate the support of those who have given their talents, and time to making this become a reality. We look forward to growing and spreading the word. Thank you all so much.

We Have A Name!

Good News! Our name has been reserved, and while we still have several steps in the process, we are excited! We thank you again for your enthusiasm and your willingness to help! We will have tons of opportunities to help Cases For Cheer once we are an official entitiy! We will keep you posted so check back often! Thanks Again!

Just Checking In....

Our blog has been quiet while we await the state process of incorporation. Our efforts behind the scenes however have been very active. We are lining up everything we need once our incorporation comes through and are really getting excited to launch full scale our program!!!

Don't forget about us and we will be moving along here soon!!! Thanks for your prayers, your ideas, and your support!

The Angels Are Singing

We wanted to update you on our Aunt Willie. Aunt Willie passed away and made her journey to heaven on July 4th 2009. While this brings us great sadness at the loss of our Aunt, and more than we can imagine to my Uncle and Cousins, we acknowledge that she is now with the Lord and no longer in pain from her illness of this world.

As Madison has said, it is fitting that she go on the 4th of July, because while we are celebrating our freedoms and liberties, Aunt Willie is now free from her pain and her hospital bed. Words cannot express what she meant to us or added to our lives. We were blessed to have her in our lives.

We want to bring honor to her, and share her with others by our Cases for Cheer, and we intend on taking this as far as wide as we can, starting locally with UC Davis Cancer Center. If you are willing or interested in helping, please email us at casesforcheer@gmail.com . We can give you the information you are needing from there.

Also if you would like to make the pillowcases but are unsure how, we will be offering a class once a month to take you through the steps to create these cases in the pattern necessary for donation under our Cases for Cheer Donation and Sewing Guidelines.

The angels are singing, for they are receiving one of the best! God Bless You all, and hold your families near and tight.

Great News!!!

I just spoke with the Outreach administrator for UC Davis' Cancer Center and they are happy to accept our pillowcases! They are ready anytime we can get them to them. They are looking forward to using them in their infusion rooms, but will also hand them out to patients as we wish! We would really like them to be able to go home with them as well but the infusion room is a great start! It should cheer up the chemo rooms in no time!!! We can also talk to the Oncology floor about using them for their rooms!

So I guess we are just about ready to begin, we will start small scale by word of mouth until we can get the non-profit status. If anyone would like to donate monies toward fabrics and thread, and/or would like to sew the cases (we have the pattern) we would appreciate any and all help! Please email us at casesforcheer@gmail.com .
