Virtual Polar Plunge - Jane Lloyd Fund
Tax deductible
Participate in the Virtual Portal Plunge Challenge and donate to the Jane Lloyd Fund (housed under the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation) to support cancer patients during this difficult time.
The effects of COVID-19 has taken a great toll on many vulnerable populations and with the cancellation of many in person fundraisers, we would be SO grateful to have all of you be part of this amazing cause ! This campaign is organized by the students of St. Luke's Society from the Hotchkiss School.
Here is more about the Jane Llyod Fund's Mission from their Website: (thejanellyodfund.org)
"The Jane Lloyd Fund was founded by the Lloyd family after her eight-year battle with cancer. They wanted to respond to the generosity of the community, who helped Jane when she was in need so that others in the community might experience the same sense of well being in their own time of need.
The fund was established at the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation to benefit cancer patients and their families with financial need who reside or work in the Connecticut towns of Canaan, Cornwall, Falls Village, Kent, Salisbury and Sharon. It is with joyous hearts that this fund has been established to continue the chain of generosity and goodwill linking Jane to many other families long into the future.
We are a unique fund in that we provide direct support for a patient's day-to-day living expenses. Our goal is simple: to raise funds in the name of Jane Lloyd to help individuals battling cancer live more comfortably and with dignity in their own home during treatment."
