The River Heritage Quilt Guild of Cape Girardeau at its regular monthly meeting on Jan. 9 presented a check for $1,033.10 to Saint Francis Hospital's “Pink Up” campaign, which is part of the “Dig For Life” program. This program provides free mammograms each year to Cape Girardeau women who otherwise would not receive this important screening. Pictured above are Madeline Gieselman, Martha Cox, Nancy Kester, Caroline Tilghman, four breast cancer survivors from the RHQG presenting the check to Saint Francis' representative, Laura Boos Propst. If you quilt, come and join us and help us to collect the next contribution!
