Thanks to you, our state of the art surgical oncology space can be revitalized and new approaches to improve the patient experience and further reduce wait times is supported. 

On June 25, 2018, I will shave my hair for the final time for our SHAVE TO SAVE event; this event will be our LAST SHAVE event! 

It really has become a family affair, with our sons, Matteo (16) and Noah (5) shaving their heads along side their mama. My husband, Lorenzo, our biggest cheerleader all these years. Thank you boys for your love and support!!!

Shave to Save was started in 2005 by David Tomaz, a maintenance representative at our hospital who had several family members die of cancer. David started it to express his gratitude for the help and care his father, Venancio Tomaz,received as a patient at Trillium and the event I was dedicated in his memory.

Our goal 14 years ago was a mere $2000, and date we have raised over $200,000 and have donated over 500 inches of hair.

Will you join others in making a special LAST donation to our event? Please, click on the DONATE NOW button to the right of my page.   

After 14 years, generous friends and family, have helped build a legacy with Cancer Care Services at Trillium Health Partners. I couldn’t have raised so much funds for our event without your help, I am eternally grateful for your faithful and continued support all these years!

Thank you for your continued support and friendship.

With gratitude,
