A few words from Bill and Marilyn Watson, parents of Michelle and founders of Michelle’s Place….

“Reality Rally comes to Temecula in April, but Gillian, the creator and producer, spends all year working on Reality Rally and ways it can help support Michelle's Place Women's Breast Cancer Resource Center help those going through breast cancer treatment. Our daughter, Michelle, also had a huge love of adventure, but breast cancer stopped her at age 26. Go on Reality Rally.com and sign up to have a team or volunteer and you'll have a fun time and be helping someone with their fight of surviving breast cancer.”

For those of you who are not familiar with the amazing services Michelle’s Place provides, Kim Goodnough, Director of Michelle’s Place (see following picture), explains below.

“Michelle's Place provides all services free to women, men, and their families, who are living with breast cancer. We see an average of 70 women newly diagnosed with breast cancer a month and provide over 700 services a month. Our Pink Ribbon Assistance Program has provided over $50,000 in food gift cards this year alone to help women feed their families. We need your help to continue providing this support. This is why we are here...The women we serve at Michelle's Place have a special place in our hearts. Through their journey we see the overwhelming emotions that come with a breast cancer diagnosis. We see their struggles, their pain and sadness, but in the darkness, we also see light. We see their joy and best of all, we see hope. Please take a moment to visit our YouTube channel to watch some quick videos from real survivors and Michelle's Place clients.”

I hope that the testimonies of the Michelle’s Place team and the patients they aid will encourage you to become a part of the fight against breast cancer! Kim Goodnough says it best: “Their stories of bravery and hope are why Michelle's Place exists.”
