Shellee Flint

Community Volunteer

Shellee supports the American Cancer Society and has wonderful friends who have been involved with ACS for quite some time. Shellee has always thought it to be such a great cause. However, after caring for her mother for 5 weeks following her stem cell transplant last summer, Shellee could not imagine those who do not have the support system while going through their cancer journey.  Shellee believes ACS plays such a vital role helping those in our community when they might not have the help otherwise.  Funding research and helping cancer patients in their daily lives is the reason why she wanted to be a part of this wonderful cause.
