VAN WERT COUNTYIndividuals can make various changes to their lifestyles to help reduce their chances of developing certain types of cancer, including breast cancer. One thing they cannot change is their genes, prompting curiosity about the role of family history in relation to breast cancer risk.
Breast cancer affects millions of women and their family and friends every year. Each of those women has their own unique experience upon receiving a breast cancer diagnosis, and those journeys hopefully end with successful treatment.
On August 3, 2024, we held our Annual Cancer Golf Outing at Pike Run Golf Course. Due to the efforts and kindness of many individuals and businesses, we were able to donate $30,000 to the Putnam County Cancer Assistance Program.
