Celebrating 58 years of emotional and financial support for your Elkhart County neighbors with cancer.

United Cancer Fall 2016

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2016. Our move to The Lerner’s Crystal Ballroom in 2015 was a tremendous success, and we look forward to having an even bigger show this year! Our tremendous planning committee brings years of experience and a wealth of wonderful new ideas, so make plans now to attend the best fashion show in Elkhart County. Our hosts at Stephenson’s make several trips to New York each year, and always bring home the most beautiful fashions for you to enjoy. Come early and browse Stephenson’s Pop-Up Store, stay for the fantastic lunch and fashions, and bid on dozens of silent and live auction treasures. Search “United Cancer Services” on Facebook, and you will see a number of beautiful live auction items that you can bid on at the Fashion Show.

You can reserve your place for $100, or invite your friends and reserve a table of 6, 8, or 10 people. Sponsorships are also available. Register at www.elkhartcancer.org, or call (574) 875-5158 from 9 am to 4 pm, or mail your check payable to “United Cancer” to our office.

With 350 in attendance last year, please make your reservations early! n

Farewell Rachael, Welcome Tiffany!We’re sad to announce that after six great years as our caseworker,

Rachael Sorg is leaving United Cancer. She wasn’t looking for another job, a great opportunity just presented itself. Those are often the best kind of jobs to get, and with college expenses looming in the not so distant future, she felt this was an offer she

couldn’t refuse. Rachael has done a wonderful job at United Cancer, and we will miss her. Good luck in your next endeavor!

Replacing Rachael will be Tiffany Newbold. Tiffany has earned a master’s degree in psychology, and has experience in counceling from grade school all the way up to starting college programs. Her family recently moved to Goshen, where her husband became the Provost for Goshen College. We are confident that Tiffany will carry on United Cancer’s tradition of caring and concern for our clients and families. Wecome Tiffany! n

United Cancer’s Legacy Family is made up of those who’ve committed to help their neighbors who will have cancer, but have not been diagnosed yet. One of the most common donations to United Cancer is to make a cash gift or attend a fundraiser. But one of the easiest ways to give is to remember United Cancer in your Will, Charitable Trust, Life Insurance, or to make other donations like Real Estate or Valuable property.

We know that a cure for cancer is somewhere out there in the future, but that cure may be many many years off. Will you do something to help your loved ones and neighbors in the years before that cure is found? Call United Cancer now and let us know that you’ve remembered our cause in your Will, Life Insurance, or other investment vehicle. When you do, you will automatically become a member of United Cancer’s Legacy Family! n

Tiffany Newbold joins our team at United Cancer Services!

I will be glad to help

you when you call!

“ You’ve thought about what you would leave behind for your loved ones, the people you care about. What will you do for the people they will know and love?”
