	Diane Hoskins – Rehab Support "The main reason I volunteer with breast cancer patients is because 3 years ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I feel that I can relate to the patients and can provide them with the support and information that they need. I feel that by volunteering I am making a difference. As a bonus, I find it both rewarding and enjoyable."
Deb Boyd – Gift Shop " I love people and enjoy dealing with them. It's my way of giving back to others, as so many family, friends and volunteers helped me during our journey with our daughter as she went through treatment in her battle against leukemia. I am a nurse by profession, so it feels natural being in a hospital environment. And I feel strongly that I want to do my part in serving our community."
