In October we’re touching on women’s health. We know many are touched by cancer directly or indirectly. In our community St. Charles plays a big role in helping people be survivors. Here is a link to their non-profit.
If you would like to know how you can help or volunteer, please contact Wendy Rudy 541.706.2969 or wfrudy@stcharleshealthcare.org
