Time to Blog!

Welcome to our BLOG! We know what you’re thinking: It’s about TIME the Ellie Fund had a blog! Well, yes, it IS about time. We’ve been busier than ever lately. Over the past two weeks we added a new colleague and moved our office. And now that we’re (almost) done with that, we have time: To be more efficient, thanks to the new phone system. To hear ourselves think, thanks to the divided workspaces. (Previously, five of us shared 500 square feet.) To help more breast cancer patients and families than ever before, thanks to our new staff member. And yes, finally…time to blog. 

Say Hello to AnneAnne Meisner, from Natick, MA, is our new Patient Services & Database Coordinator. You’ve seen this photo of her on our website from when she was diagnosed with breast cancer five years ago. Anne will be working with Director of Patient Services Gail Fine taking care of patient needs, and creating, maintaining and nurturing our new database.

Anne is no stranger to the Ellie Fund. She was one of the first patients I worked with when I started our current program, was the first speaker at our inaugural Kelley for Ellie fashion show, has been a dedicated event volunteer, Board Member, and great friend. She’s also a strong supporter of First Descents and Sharsheret. We’re thrilled to have her on Team Ellie! You can reach her at anne@elliefund.org.
