Silver Linings

There is an upcoming event that I wanted so much to attend but unfortunately I couldn't and definitely wouldn’t be able to attend due to some family celebrations that coincides with the affair. This is the Silver Linings, a homecoming for all the Breast Cancer Survivors. This is a project of ICanServe Foundation, a non-stock, non-profit organization committed to develop high impact information campaigns on breast cancer. I opted to copy-paste the article for whoever might be interested may just contact ICanServe or the Silver Linings website. And here it is. . .
