Other Women's Council Initiatives

Former Women’s Council President, Jordana Schneider, left, and Women’s Council Founder Bonnie Levin, have been instrumental in raising funds through the sale of Buddy Bears.

The Women's Council also has been the driving force behind three other fund-raising efforts over the years.

• “Spa for the Spirit”
  “Spa for the Spirit” is a day of rejuvenation, relaxation and beauty held twice a year for about 30 women who are cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation treatment.
• “Wrap Yourself in Love” robes*
  The “Wrap Yourself in Love” luxurious robes are given to cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation treatment.
• “Buddy Bears” plush animals*
  Buddy Bears are provided as a comfort to women and children undergoing cancer treatment.

*Purchasers of these items can “donate back” a robe or bear, or they make the perfect gift to give to loved ones, knowing that a percentage of their purchase price benefits the Leon Hess Cancer Center.
