WORKSHOPS, SEMINARS & ACTIVITIES
Inspired by her mother's diagnosis of Colon cancer, and the treatment received from the Cedars CanSupport professionals and volunteers, Christyna Guerard decided to start a fundraiser in honor of her mother.  The Sweetest Thing Fundraiser expands upon the services/programs, which are offered at Cedars CanSupport at the McGill University Health Centre.  Aimed directly to those battling cancer, the event's mission is to show these patients that they are still the Sweetest Things; cancer or no cancer, they deserve a day/event centered around them.  The day will feature the following activities:

HAIR: How to style, do's and don'ts depending on the type of cancer and a full consultation with a professional
MAKEUP:  How to apply, what products to use and a full consultation with a professional
PHOTOGRAPHY: After hair & make-up are in place have a professional photograph them
