Foligno

The Janis Foligno Foundation is again doing it’s part in the fight against cancer.

Today the foundation, created after Janis Foligno lost her battle with breast cancer in July 2009, donated $110,000 to six local charities.

Janis’s daughter Lisa Foligno-Carey says more than half of the money is going to the Advanced Medical Research Institute of Canada and the Canadian Cancer Society for research.

Also receiving funding were the House of Kin, Maison Vale Hospice, Meals on Wheels and NEO Kids.
