OUR IMPACT

Cathy R. Watson “GiGi’s” Foundation exists because one woman who was battling a rare form of cancer had a vision. Cathy wanted to make a difference in the lives of others and one way she wanted to give back was by starting her own foundation. This foundation helps others who are battling rare kinds of cancer and needs assistance affording travel cost to various locations for specialized cancer treatment throughout the continental United States.
