Sometimes we feel helpless, those of us who want to help women on their cancer journey.<\/p>\n
One way to share support can also help you. Donate items from your home or go shopping.<\/p>\n
Breast Cancer Awareness: Shopping to help survivors (FOX26)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The Discovery Shop on Bullard and West in Fresno<\/a> is a thrift shop where all money raised goes toward cancer research, patient services and education.<\/p>\n Everything here – furniture, clothes, shoes, housewares, even wigs – are donated.<\/p>\n Not everything is pink in honor of breast cancer survivors, but you’ll find a good selection of pink here.<\/p>\n You\u2019ll also find a lot of support from women who know that cancer journey, like volunteer, Margie Soltero.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve been through this 4 times. I know. And they start asking questions because they don\u2019t know what\u2019s in the future for them. And I don\u2019t know. Everyone is different. But I tell them a little bit and they light up. And it makes their journey lighter, I think,\u201d said Soltero.<\/p>\n Manager Bonnie O\u2019neal is proud of the support they give to survivors.<\/p>\n \u201cWe also have a program called road to recovery where a volunteer is assigned to that cancer patient to take them to and from cancer treatment. The drivers are normally going through or have gone through that same type of cancer,\u201d said O\u2019neal.<\/p>\n Volunteers and donations are always welcome seven days a week.<\/p>\n Men are welcome too, to buy or make donations.<\/p>\n To view the full segment, visit the FOX26 YouTube page HERE.<\/a><\/p>\n
