Christmas Without Cancer Queen of Hearts Drawing up to $125,000

With a current $125,000 raised, Christmas Without Cancer Queen of Hearts drawing includes online sales leading up to Thursday's live drawing at St. James Place, also scheduled to live stream at 7 p.m. July 23 on the Christmas Without Cancer Facebook site.

With remaining cards dwindling down to a precious few, a winner is assured in the remaining 10 weeks of summer, but caution remains paramount regarding healthy procedures.

"Christmas Without Cancer's "Queen of Hearts Raffle" campaign to raise funds for local families facing cancer has been bolstered throughout state shut down by the dozens of committee members and volunteers.

Copeland and the Christmas Without Cancer team have been uplifted by web-based initiatives empowering the organization to keep providing funds to needy families.

"It's inspiring to see community members with their own struggles still support those fighting cancer," said Renee Copeland, Christmas Without Cancer vice president.

Copeland and 5K Race Director Debbie Gardner are still preparing for a virtual Christmas Without Cancer 5K Run/Walk uniquely scheduled between September 19 and September 26, 2020.

"This will be special for so many reasons," said Copeland. "Not only is this a virtual race of our supporters getting out with a small group or family members but it's testament to honorable people doing the honorable thing in times of greatest need."

Race registration is currently open:
