Gene Epstein shares, “I feel that if you can do something to make another person’s life a little better because of your help, whether financial or physical, then both people feel better – the donor and the recipient. It’s a win-win situation and the more that you do it, the better you feel."
Inspired by Bucks County resident Corinne Sikora, who battled both brain and breast cancer, the nonprofit Kin Wellness Center is free to Bucks County residents battling cancer regardless of where they are receiving treatment and welcomes caregivers as well. Kin also cares for oncology healthcare workers as part of its total 360-care model.
Free programs include nutrition, yoga, fitness, one-on-one counseling, support groups, workshops, massage, reflexology, reiki, chiropractic, acupuncture, and facials. Kin is a unique Center that looks to satisfy the emotional, social and physical needs of cancer patients. The success of Kin is made possible through generous donations from the local Bucks County community.
