June 2022 GildaGram Newsletter
Reflecting On Our Mission
In planning for 2022, the Gilda’s Club team took inspiration from our members, who role model daily how to face challenges while reimagining new ways to thrive boldly. As a result, for the first time, we launched a new year with two operating clubhouses, one physical and one virtual. We are now halfway through 2022, so it is a great time to reflect and celebrate how far we’ve come! Continue reading Clubhouse News here to hear from Katherine Todd, Executive Director, about how the Gilda’s Club Minnesota community has been fulfilling its mission.
As We Serve Others, We Serve Ourselves

Now, we are starting to see those dreams come to fruition. Read the Program News update with Shaunequa James, Program Director, to learn about Gilda’s growing program of cancer support.
