April is Oral, Head, and Neck Cancer Awareness Month. 

The goal of this initiative to encourage adults to take advantage of the nationwide and international free screenings. A key message to successful treatment is early diagnosis!

See the resources tab for more information about oral cancer and head & neck cancer.

We concluded a successful FunDrive gently used clothes and household goods collection. We're thankful to all the friends, family, community members who brought their "stuff" to us. If you'd like more information on how to host your own fundraising event, please let us know; the referral will benefit us also. 

Catch us in action!

Thanks to the excellent care we received from our physicians, HeadStrong Voices for Healing is joined by fellow supporters Liz Dorman and Tim Garcia to host our inaugural event. Our goal is to raise money to assist in much needed head & neck cancer research and provide support for the benefit of all patients coping with this disease and its difficult treatment. 

A huge THANK YOU to all our dear family, friends and well-wishers who supported our inaugural fundraiser at Curt's Cafe on Central St. on November 9th. It was truly a warm atmosphere with beautiful harp music, great food and drinks. We had a silent auction and the always fun "get-it-now" surprise boxes for purchase. 

We couldn't have done it without the help of all our generous donors. 

Please thank them along with us!
