Love Lights a Tree in Kane

“Remember your loved one this holiday season with a ‘Love Light’ that will light the McKean County American Cancer Society Trees of Hope at It’s Judi’s Place and Photo and Sound, both in Kane, this holiday season,” Shirley Milliron announced this week.

“A gift to the American Cancer Society made in honor or in memory of a friend or loved one enables much needed research, education, advocacy, and patient service programs, which truly save lives.”

Your loved one’s name will be displayed prominently on the Trees at Judi’s and Photo and Sound.

Love Light forms asks for the donor’s name, address and the name in whose honor or memory the Light will shine. The suggested gift per individual honored or remembered is a "gift from the heart". Make checks payable to the American Cancer Society.

Those interested may pick up and complete a form and leave it with your "gift from the heart" at Judi's or Photo and Sound. The requests will be picked up weekly and processed. You may speed up the process by sending completed forms and gifts directly to Shirley Milliron, 5 Easton Street, Kane, PA 16735 by December 15. For more information please call Shirley at 814-837-7657. Or you can download a form HERE (PDF) and print it out.

The proceeds of Love Lights will go to the Kane Area Relay for Life toward their 2009 fundraising goal set by the McKean County Unit of the American Cancer Society at $65,000.
