Cancer League selling See’s Candy

The South Lake Tahoe Cancer League’s annual See’s Candy fundraiser is under way.

Money raised goes to provide stipends for cancer patients in the community. Funds are also used to reimburse people who drive patients to appointments.

Jonnie Crawford, a volunteer with the organization, said in an average month it’s not unusual to hand out more than $5,000 in grants and more than half that much in gas money.

The sale goes from Nov. 21-Dec. 24 from 10am-5pm in the storefront by Starbucks at the Y.
