When the sewing group at Greenridge Place Memory Care began seeking volunteers, Lynn Hunt—an 18-year breast cancer survivor—was the first to step forward. Together with fellow residents, Lynn helped handcraft mastectomy pillows designed to bring comfort and dignity to breast cancer patients throughout the Denver metro area. These meaningful gifts will soon be delivered to Kaiser Permanente Franklin Medical Center.

“This was a deeply personal and heartfelt project for our seniors,” said Caitlin Dempster, Life Engagement Director. “They not only put their lifelong skills to use but also rediscovered a powerful sense of purpose through giving back.”

The event was covered by KUSA Channel 9. You can watch the full video here.
