Cancer turbans at St. George's of Forest Hill, Kitchener

Monthly meetings resume: Parish volunteers and members of the K-W May Count Club at St. George's of Forest Hill

For the past 16 years parish volunteers and members of the Kitchener-Waterloo May Court Club have been gathering at St. George’s of Forest Hill Anglican Church to hand sew the turbans and enjoy fellowship and laughter.

Our monthly meetings were interrupted by COVID, but many members continued the sewing process at their homes. We were able to take on average of 50-70 turbans or caps to the Grand River Cancer Centre (GRCC) per month, September to June.

Since inception we have provided the patients at the GRCC with an average of 600 plus turbans/caps per year. Many prayers are said for those who receive a turban.
