2 Important World Topics – 2 Informative Speakers The Canadian Cancer Society will have a representative at our meeting speaking on ‘Current Trends - Management of Breast Cancer’. Jess Pringle from GoGo Grandmothers Who Are GoGo Grandmothers What Do They Do? The focus of this group is on four critical areas: orphans, grandmothers and people living with HIV and AIDS. Today, there are well over 100 groups across Canada, from British Columbia to Prince Edward Island, with many still in the process of forming. Groups have also formed in Australia, New Zealand and the United States. One of their mandates is to support the unsung heroes of Africa, the grandmothers. Grandmothers single-handedly care for millions of children orphaned by AIDS, sometimes as many as ten to fifteen in one household.  Grandmothers to Grandmothers an important worldly cause!
