LEWISTON — Cassiel's Day Spa has partnered with "PIPS," whose mission is to help breast cancer survivors who are struggling emotionally and financially. It's a place where people who are experiencing the same pains of living with the disease can gather to laugh, hope and, sometimes, cry together.
PIPS co-founder Claudette Caron stresses that PIPS is not a club, but a haven that is open to all people in the community who are living with breast cancer. The group meets at Caron's home each month.
To raise money for PIPS, Cassiel's is offering a promotional celebration event on Wednesday, Dec. 2, raffling a gift basket created by LeClair Designs & Gift Services. The basket, valued at $300, is packed with make-up and other products sold at the spa. All proceeds will benefit PIPS, and 10 percent of the spa's profits of Dec. 2 will be donated to PIPS.
Raffle tickets are on sale now at Cassiel's, 71 East Ave. For more information on PIPS, contact Caron at 755-0077, or PIPS co-founder Carlene Sperry at 754-0747. For questions about the fundraiser or how to buy tickets, call 783-3321.
