Breast Cancer Family Foundation Stories of Strength

Stacie Hackl and Dean Raasch shared their stories of survival and cancer prevention strategies to Family Foods and Wellness students.  Stacie, breast cancer survivor, and Dean, leukemia survivor, provide a much needed powerful message to students about the importance of early detection and how lifestyles chosen now can impact the rest of their lives.  I highly encourage everyone to check out the Breast Cancer Family Foundation web-site for additional resources and opportunities to support their organization.

Stacie Hackl, breast cancer survivor and Breast Cancer Family Foundation Director shares her story and encourages students to try organic foods in their diets (with a little help of organic suckers!)
Dean Raasch shares his story of leukemia survival being diagnosed at the age of 19
