Review for Phils Friends, Crown Point, IN, USA
My friend Geoffrey was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, which is a form of cancer. I went through the various stages with him, from having his cells harvested to having them transplanted into his body. Someone had sent him a care package from Phil's Friends. At the time, I only knew that it came from somewhere where people volunteered and cared about those having cancer. Last summer, Geoffrey and I decided to find out more about Phil's Friends and came to one of the volunteer meetings. That was in August of 2018, and we come once a week on Thursday afternoons to help out with whatever we can. Mostly, it's in putting cards together to send out to cancer patients. They get colored and have verses inside to make the cancer patients smile and feel hopeful. I love going to Phil's Friends and plan on doing it for as long as I possibly can. I believe, in my heart, that it's a very worthwhile organization. God bless.
