American Cancer Society Is Looking for Volunteers

The American Cancer Society is looking for help. They're searching for volunteers interested in supporting one of two programs.

First, cosmetologists willing to help cancer patients cope with hair loss and skin changes. Also, they're looking for breast cancer survivors to help guide those newly diagnosed.

On Monday, Sept. 20, at the Society's office located at 740 Commerce Drive, Suite B, in Perrysburg there will be a refresher class for current Look Good&Feel Better (COSMOTOLOGIST) volunteers. It will be held from 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. A class for new volunteers will be held from 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Breast cancer survivors willing to help guide newly diagnosed breast cancer patients by providing a listening ear, help, and hope, are invited to a Reach to Recovery training on Saturday, September 25, 2010 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the same location. Dr. Anita Leininger, a breast cancer surgeon from the University of Toledo Medical Center, will be speaking.
