A few final words from Angel’s Attic co-chair Kay Melemed:

“We are incredibly grateful for our volunteers and contacts who made the first Angel’s Attic benefit sale such a success. When they say ‘it takes a village’, we KNOW that to be true…and in this case the village came together to help us help Angel Foundation families facing cancer deal with the devastation cancer brings to their lives.”
