October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

A portion of all Lancaster Brewing Company Lancaster dessert sales will be donated to the Penn State Karen Dwyer-Jones Fund for the month of October.

This fund has been created in Karen’s memory with the hope that women with breast cancer will be touched by her strength and determination. In Karen’s work as a Clinical Research Coordinator at the Penn State Hershey Heart and Vascular institute, she was passionate about sharing her knowledge and appreciation for life. Even in her own battle with breast cancer Karen enrolled in a clinical trial and encouraged other women to do the same. Karen taught us to hope that something good was just around the corner. During her most difficult days, Karen discussed use of this fund as a Way of offering hope to others. It’s with her vote of confidence that the Penn State Hershey Breast Center offers this option to families.

If you know someone coping with breast cancer and in need of financial assistance, please call Anne Bobb, RN at 717-531-7492 or e-mail abobb@hmc.psu.edu for more information about qualifications for access to the fund.

If you choose to participate in Karen’s vote of confidence by contributing to the Karen Dwyer-Jones Patient Fund please send a check payable to Penn State College of Medicine (PSCOM) noting the fund, to:
