Donor Steps Forward With $20K Gift Challenge For Bucks Co. Cancer Wellness Center

BUCKINGHAM, PA — Anyone who donates to the "Kin Kind Match" campaign over the next few weeks will see their money doubled in support of Bucks County cancer patients and their caregivers.

An anonymous donor has stepped forward, offering to match monetary donations - dollar-for-dollar - up to $20,000 made to the Kin Wellness and Support Center between Nov. 28 and Dec. 12.

Based in Buckingham, Kin provides more than 7,000 hours of free services annually to cancer patients, caregivers and local oncology healthcare workers from across Bucks County.

“We are helping between 80 to 100 people per week by offering as many as 30 different services, classes and workshops weekly," said Kin's co-founder and executive director, Keith Fenimore. "This donation match was an unexpected gift that will allow us to end our fundraising season strong so we can continue to make an impact on those who rely on us."

Fenimore added, "I love that this is obtainable to all, as we will graciously accept a donation of any denomination. I am eager to see if we can turn this $20,000 gift into $40,000 for Kin!”
