How Much Did We Raise at The Cancer Connection Camp-in?


Over $58,000, thanks to you! That money will be used to make sure the services of the Cancer Connection remain free of charge to people with cancer as well as for their caretakers. Monte was SO glad not to have to camp OUTSIDE this year but he has been invited by The Hampshire Council of Governments to camp on their old courthouse lawn again. We’ll see what happens in 2018!  It’s not too late to donate, they are accepting online donations through 3/4. Wouldn’t it be nice to get to $60,000?  Donate here.

Thank you to everyone who donated with their time and treasure and to The Hotel Northampton for making their ballroom and 15 rooms available all to support this great local organization. And to all the amazingly talent performers and artists who lended their talents to make this event so…different.
