To the editor:
After much contemplation, From Our Hearts has decided to cease operations. Many factors went into this very difficult decision. We found it difficult to continue as a totally volunteer-run organization, as many other volunteer organizations have found.
From Our Hearts started as a grass-roots effort in 2002 and became a non-profit 501c3 organization in 2004. The first BreastFest was held at the St. James City Hardware Store in 2002 and later moved to the St. James City Civic Center. FOH raised money to support the residents of Pine Island that needed assistance with breast cancer screening and treatment. Since 2005, From Our Hearts provided almost $500,000 in care.
