CIRCLE OF HOPE: SURVIVING & THRIVING

Joan Tashbar and Rosa Holloway became the best of friends because of the worst of times. Neither had been given much chance of surviving cancer, but neither had any intention of giving up the fight, either.

As Joan shares with Growing Bolder,

"I was not ready to die. I'm still not ready."

Together, they created Circle of Hope for Cancer Research, Inc. It raises money to support and fund the work of people who are searching for better ways to beat the disease. Come along as they present their latest check to a Ph.D. student at the UCF College of Medicine's Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences. See how the student's work and Joan and Rosa's much-needed financial assistance just may save future lives.

Come along as Growing Bolder gets an up-close look at the program.
