The Roswell Park Paint Box Project:
 » 107.7
The Lake is proud to support the Roswell Park Paint Box Project. All
month long they will be selling cards at various locations around
Western New York. Below is more information on this great cause and how
you can show your support during this holiday season.
» ABOUT THE PAINT BOX PROJECT:
The Paint Box Project, founded in 1990, uses the healing power of art
to help young cancer patients and their family members to express
themselves during and after treatment. The children’s artwork has been
converted into holiday cards, wrapping paper and gifts for both home
and office. Over 150 children are currently involved in the project.
Through this organization they have raised over $5.3 million for cancer
research.
» HOW YOU CAN HELP:
This year The Paint Box Project features over 50 new cards and gifts
including fleece wear, calendars and jewelry. Volunteers will be on
site each weekend through December 18th at both McKinley Mall and The
Walden Galleria for you to purchase these items. You can stop by either
mall Saturdays between 11am – 8pm or Sundays between 12pm – 6pm to pick
