The Breast Center at Valley Medical Center is calling all knitters and crocheters to help create pink scarves for patients diagnosed with breast cancer for its Project Pink Scarff 2011.
“The scarves provide warmth and hope and let patients know they are not alone in their battle against cancer,” said Sherry Kuzan, Manager of The Breast Center at VMC. “We have been so touched by the support of our community. It is remarkable the power in this simple act of kindness. The women who receive the scarves are so thankful.”
In 2010, more than 550 scarves were donated and the staff at Valley’s Breast Center would like to thank the community for their amazing support!
For those who don’t know how to knit or crochet, but would like to donate to the project, The Breast Center is accepting yarn donations. One scarf is typically made using one or two skeins.
The Breast Center is at 4033 Talbot Road in the Medical Arts Center at Valley Medical, suite 470. To donate a new handmade scarf or yarn, contact Christy Snavely at The Breast Center at 425-228-3440, ext. 4869.
