Indianapolis, IN February 15, 2004–Cancer Comfort, an online cancer resource center, has officially launched a fundraising campaign for ?Sarah?s Gift?. Sarah?s Gift was created with the help of 12-year old cancer patient, Sarah, who underwent a bone marrow transplant in August 2003 at Seattle Children?s Hospital.

?I first met Sarah through a volunteer organization, Chemo Angels, in May 2003?, states Kathy Browning, founder of Cancer Comfort. ?While researching the web for cancer resources, I ran across Chemo Angels. This organization connects individuals to ?angel? cancer patients and I was lucky enough to be assigned to Sarah.”

Cancer Comfort offers an exclusive line of Daily Comfort Kits, specifically designed for individuals undergoing chemotherapy and radiation treatments. The gift line includes all-natural, unscented personal care items, which take into consideration the special needs of the cancer patient. Browning states ?We thoroughly tested every item included in our Daily Comfort Kits. Each one provides a benefit and comfort to individuals during a very difficult time?.

Browning and Sarah created ?Sarah?s Gift? - a gift of comfort for children with cancer. Packaged in a backpack to provide discreet transportation of an IV bag and pump; Sarah’s Gift is filled with personal care products, comfort items, toys and games that stimulate the mind and provide a creative outlet, and gifts and resources for the caregiver.

?The response to ?Sarah?s Gift? has been wonderful.? Browning continues, ?Product vendors have been very generous in providing products needed for the kits, and we are truly grateful.? Cancer Comfort plans to donate 30 kits to Seattle Children?s Hospital in March. Browning will fly out to Seattle to meet Sarah and together they will present Sarah’s Gift to the children.

Cancer Comfort is currently raising funds through individual donations and corporate sponsors. “I’m confident we’ll reach our goal.” States Browning. “Once people hear about Sarah, they are inspired by her courage and positive outlook. It just takes time to get the word out.”
