‘Pink Pumpkins Coins 4 Chemo’ to Host Patient Support Holiday Dinner Tonite 🎄🍽

The Pink Pumpkins Coins 4 Chemo organization stands as a testament to community spirit and compassion. This remarkable organization, dedicated to supporting cancer patients and their families, is gearing up for its first sit-down Christmas dinner since the pandemic.

For years, Pink Pumpkins Coins 4 Chemo has been a source of solace and support for those battling cancer. During the pandemic, they adapted by providing patients with boxes of food for Christmas dinner. This year, they're enhancing their outreach with a buffet-style meal, complete with boxes containing everything needed for a dinner at home, gifts, and gift cards. The highlight of the evening will be a visit from Santa, adding a touch of festive magic to the occasion.

The organization's website, pinkpumpkinscoins4chemo.org, offers more information on their mission and how to contribute to this noble cause. Their efforts exemplify the spirit of giving and community solidarity, making a real difference in the lives of those facing the challenges of cancer.

Lynyrd Skynyrd Set to Rock Musikfest 2024

Lynyrd Skynyrd, a legendary name in southern rock, is gearing up for their third performance at Bethlehem's Musikfest, scheduled for August 7, 2024. Despite the recent passing of their last original member, Gary Rossington, the band continues to tour, bringing their iconic music, including hits like “Simple Man” and “Sweet Home Alabama,” to fans across generations. Lynyrd Skynyrd joins other headliners like Ludacris and Old Dominion for the 2024 festival. Tickets for their performance will be available for purchase starting December 13 for ArtsQuest members and December 15 for the general public.
