Mark Your Calendars! The Jane Lloyd Fund Events

March 12th, 2018

“Helping Cancer Patients Day to Day” is the mission of The Jane Lloyd Fund. A beloved community member, Jane Lloyd valiantly lived with her Cancer for eight years. Between the time of her initial diagnosis and her passing on September 14, 2005, Jane was able to realize many of her lifetime dreams, including buying the home she always wanted, and meeting & riding with her role model of the time, Lance Armstrong. Jane also passionately pursued her love of gardening, the ultimate result of which can only be the joy her clients must feel as they watch the gardens she created come to life year after year.

Throughout her time with Cancer, Jane’s family, friends, clients, and the general community came out in full force to help her maintain the ability to live her life to the fullest, without concern for the financial restraints caused by her Cancer. Following Jane’s death, her family formed The Jane Lloyd Fund, with the help of The Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation. With the fund, the Lloyd family’s goal was to arrange a way for others in our community who were/are living with Cancer to have the ability to live their lives as comfortably as possible, as Jane was able to do.

Today, almost 20 years after Jane’s passing, The Jane Lloyd Fund has helped countless community members live as valiantly as Jane was able to. This Fund provides assistance with every aspect of daily living, for those with Cancer whose treatment renders them unable to do what they used to/loved to do.

So, Mark Your Calendars for these events that benefit The Jane Lloyd Fund:
