There is a saying "Not all heroes wear capes" most of the time when we think of hero's, the first thing that comes to mind is the Police and Fire Department. But there are many kinds of hero's out there every day, who often go unrecognized and unnoticed. One such group I have come to know in our area is the Greene County Women's League.
The Greene County Women's League operates right here in our backyard. I am sure some of you have heard of them, and I am sure many of you have even been to some of their events. They have done car shows, many craft fairs and they do many cool raffles year round . Maybe you have seen their booth at events and places around Greene County.
Do you know what these Women do? Do you know why they are raising money? Often we just go to an event to enjoy it, or buy a raffle ticket with the hopes of winning and don't look any deeper. Well next time you see one of these Women or attend one of their events, I hope you will remember they are raising money to help cancer patients right here in our area.
The group was formed over 40 years ago by 12 Women whose mission was and still is, to assist Greene County cancer patients with medical expenses.
Cancer is something that touches us all, if you have not had it, I am sure you know someone who has. Staying strong and fighting this horrible disease is hard enough, without having to worry about how you are going to pay for your treatment and your bills.
So if you are looking to donate to an awesome organization that helps people in our backyard, or are a Woman looking for a worthy cause to join. I can not think of a more inspirational group then this!
For more information on how to help, join or to get information on up coming events, go to their website at https://greenecountywomensleague.com
