Las Vegas, NV & Knoxville, TN – November 2015 / Newsmaker Alert / On her company’s blog site SharonINK.com/Spot, SharonINK PR & Marketing head Sharon Scott, RRP, says there’s still time to send support for Send Me On Vacation (SMOV). SMOV, a philanthropic group supporting breast cancer survivors, teaches us that vacations have the power to profoundly change the lives of breast cancer survivors. Send Me On Vacation provides survivors with a vacation experience that serves as a catalyst, bridging the physical treatment of cancer with the emotional healing process needed for complete recovery.

Still Time to Support Send Me On Vacation with a Year End ContributionThe group just completed a Think Pink Bermuda cruise on the Norwegian Cruise Line’s vessel, Dawn, in October and is hosting a second cruise beginning on November 30th to Mexico on Carnival Cruise Line. During the stay in Bermuda, SMOV conducted two workshops at The Bermuda Cancer Center for more than 40 local survivors.

“The last cruise was amazing,” says SMOV Founder, Cathy Backus. “It totally exceeded my expectation. We had 35 people onboard and spent 7 days facilitating workshops, transforming survivors into Mermaids and memorializing the moment with a photo shoots.”

The cruises are the organization’s hallmark program called “A Mermaids Journey.” The voyages provide a much-needed vacation for SMOV recipients and an opportunity to engage in programs that accelerate healing. Once a year, the Mermaid’s Journey experience is offered as an empowerment retreat to the public to assist women in connecting to their inner mermaid. Thanks to Sponsor-donated accommodations the money collected from attendees goes toward fundraising. Last year the event was sponsored by SFX Preferred Resorts and Vidanta. Check the website for the next Mermaid’s Journey and transform your life while you pay it forward!

You can make a donation online at SendMeOnVacation.org or email Cathy@SendMeOnVacation.org to donate a week or air miles. Every donation helps another survivor in her healing journey.
