Canopy Cancer Survivorship Center hosts Valentine’s Day Tea for Cancer Survivors
At Canopy Cancer Survivorship Center at Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Medical Center, volunteers came together to host the 6th Annual Valentine’s Day Tea for guests who are currently battling cancer, cancer survivors, and caregivers on February 14, 2024.
Ladies came to the event dressed in High Tea fashion (hats and pearls were encouraged!), walked down the red carpet into the transformed space – complete with a beautiful Valentine’s Day tree and decor – and were greeted with a glass of bubbly. Then guests enjoyed a proper English tea complete with amuse-bouche, hors d’oeuvres, pastries and delights made by the talented chefs at Memorial Hermann. Scratch offs or a heart underneath your seat revealed a special raffle prize winner and everyone received a beautiful red rose as a parting gift. This year, cancer survivors had the opportunity to sign up for one of two settings – at 10 a.m. or 12:30 p.m. – at no cost (just like every other program, class, and offering at Canopy).
Marcella Herrera, Program Manager of Canopy Cancer Survivorship Center, thanked Canopy Volunteers and Staff, Memorial Hermann chefs, Junior League of The Woodlands, and the Valentine’s Tea Committee for their support and hard work in making the event possible. The event was a special time for cancer patients and survivors to come together, share their stories, support each other during their battle and survivorship, and focus on Canopy’s monthly theme this February, self care and self love.
