Let's Face The Sun!

The Face The Sun Foundation was established by Dorice and Andy Lessard in 2005, after Dorice was diagnosed with breast cancer. The fund was created to assist those with cancer, and in active treatment. Monies raised through generous supporters are used to help others to create lasting memories. The fund will supply eligible patients (those who are currently in active treatment) with a memorable experience such as a short trip, a dinner, or an outing that the patient's family can enjoy to "get away" from the trying times facing them.

Thank you in advance for you consideration and support! "Look towards the sun and the shadows will fall behind you." Face The Sun!

Dorice & Andy, 2006

Face The Sun must now move forward without it's co-founder. Dorice has been called to serve God at his side. She passed away March 9th 2007, in the presence of her loving family, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, strength, and above all, LOVE. All those blessed to have been touched by her cheerful and gentle nature will never forget her.
