In the spirit of Thanksgiving, the Gilda's Club NNJ community has so much to be appreciative of especially since our clubhouse has been able to remain open and continue to provide the emotional and social support so necessary to anyone touched by cancer.

We thank all our caring and giving volunteers, our generous donors, our hardworking staff and board members, and our members who have taken on the spirit of "giving back" in such a huge way. Our members have said that they want to give back to a community that has been there for them during their difficult time.  

There are so many ways to give back to our community. Some people opt to give financial support. Others have volunteered their precious time to us. Spreading the word about Gilda's Club and our mission is something all of us can do. I still hear from people who think we are only for women or only for Ovarian cancer. I call upon everyone of you to break those myths so that everyone knows that Gilda's Club is where you go for support whenever there is a diagnosis of cancer in the family.

Please see our calendar for all the beneficial lectures and workshops we offer this month. On November 19 we have a Thanksgiving Day potluck and the clubhouse has so much to be thankful for. Please come and bring your favorite side dish and your friends and family as we share the spirit of thankfulness and support that is Gilda's Club.
