Loving Arms Cancer

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM LOVING ARMS BELOW:
IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM LOVING ARMS BELOW:

As we mentioned in our last newsletter, one of the things we treasure most at Loving Arms is the amazing people who make our work possible. Each team member brings their own story, heart, and passion to our mission, and we love sharing these stories with our Loving Arms family. Today, we’re so excited to introduce you to our newest team member, Cat Gankofskie, whose dedication and spirit are already making a meaningful impact. 💙

"I first came to know Loving Arms Cancer Outreach through my work at the Cobb Community Foundation, where I served for six years as the Nonprofit Liaison. In that role, I had the privilege of getting to know LACO’s founder, Shay, and our Executive Director, Janet, very well and seeing firsthand the incredible work they were doing in our community.

One evening, while volunteering at a Cobb Community Foundation event, I ran into Janet. During our conversation, she asked what I was doing next, and I shared that I was looking for my next nonprofit home—one where I could truly make a difference. One conversation led to another, and in May of 2025, I was blessed with the opportunity to join Loving Arms Cancer Outreach as the Operations Manager.

The greatest joy of my role is meeting our clients in person and witnessing the daily impact LACO has on their lives. Being able to see how our work brings comfort and support during one of the most challenging seasons someone can face is incredibly meaningful. It’s not often you get to see firsthand how your hard work touches the lives of others.

God has truly blessed me with this opportunity, and I hope to continue serving this mission in a way that makes you all proud."

With heartfelt gratitude,

We kicked off 2026 with our first Wig-A-Thon of the year—and what a success it was! Hosted at our new office, the day was filled with connection, laughter, and the kind of joy that reminds us exactly why this work matters. Thanks to generous donations, we were able to offer free wigs, hats, scarves, and more to women experiencing hair loss due to cancer treatment.

One of our favorite moments was watching women walk out with big smiles after finding the wig—or sometimes two, three, or even four—that made them feel confident, comfortable, and seen. These women are already beautiful beyond measure, and we’re honored to help them feel it, too.

A heartfelt thank you to Michelle and the incredible volunteers who joined us and helped make the day so special. We couldn’t do this without you. We’re already looking forward to our next Wig-A-Thon on May 23rd and can’t wait to continue spreading confidence, care, and love to our community. 💗

Thank you to Sunstate Equipment Co.,one of our 2026 partners, for their generous donation and joining us a #2026CouragePartner!
