Herring Foundation of Hope

I had the amazing opportunity of volunteering at the Herring Foundation of Hope Gala this past Sat. night. It is an amazing foundation that was started by my dad's fiance, Sharon Burton, after her son was diagnosed, and later died from cancer. The foundation provides people and the families of those diagnosed with cancer with information and what to do next. Because the amount of information that there is now related to cancer it is hard to know what direction to take, or where to even start, the Herring Foundation seeks to step in and answer those questions! The gala this past Sat. was amazing, the foundation had a silent auction as well as a live auction and a portion of the live auction where people could buy hope kits (the hope kits are what the Herring Foundation sends to those recently diagnosed with cancer), and each kit costs $150 to put together. Just on the Hope Kit auction alone the Foundation raised enough money to make 115 hope kits (the goal was 50)! The foundation also made an astonishing amount of money from the silent and live auction items. The Lord has really blessed this amazing foundation over the past ten years and I know that He will only continue to bless it! I am so proud of Sharon and what she has done for this foundation and for all of those who have received Hope Kits because of her hard work and dedication! Please if you know of anyone who needs a Hope Kit, or if you would like to donate money to the foundation please visit the website HERE
