The owner of "Gem Craft Boutique" , Deborah Orgel-Gordon (opening June 23, 2012) has joined the team "Knock Out' to raise funds for the American Cancer Society. Deborah has lost many family members to Cancer over the years and felt it was time to help give back. Also Deborah's mother battled breast cancer for a second time in her life last fall, during a time when she couldn't help her mom due to a back injury that kept her flat on her back for 4 months. I feel now I am back on my feet and this is a way I can give back in a different way to support my mom and others I know who have battled cancer.
Besides Deborah being part of the team to hopefully raise a goal of $2,500 on her own, she has offered setting up a table with "Pink Ribbon" items and will give back 20% of the proceeds of what is sold at the event on Saturday, June 2nd.
