Student hoping to lighten the loads of cancer patients

When people are going through the physical and emotional stresses of treatment for cancer, the last thing they need is to add financial strain to their loads, says Samantha Hann.

The first-year kinesiology student hopes she has lightened some loads after a $2,000 donation to the Windsor and Essex County Cancer Centre Foundation’s patient assistance fund. The fund helps patients and their families by providing monies for everything from purchasing groceries, to paying utility bills, or covering travel or medications not insured.
