 At the History Department, we scan the news for the good work of our members in the Beloved Community. This letter was published in the Thursday, July 17th, 2025 edition of the Grosse Pointe News. We reached out to Paul, who provided the picture.
Grateful for Gilda's Club To the Editor: It is terrific news that Gilda’s Club will now have a location at The War Memorial. I have been a cancer patient for 5 1/2 years and a Gilda’s Royal Oak member for five of those years. If you do not know, Gilda’s is a phenomenal resource for anyone on a cancer journey — patient, family member, caregiver, etc. If you are a cancer patient and have ever wondered what Gilda’s Club is, the best decision you can make today is to check out what Gilda’s can offer you. No one needs to fight cancer alone — and no one should. You may be surprised just how much other travelers on the journey can help lighten the burden. I encourage you to check Gilda’s out — do it today. - Paul Lipsitz So here’s how we can take action this week. Borrowing from the Grosse Pointe News once more. Starting July 9, Gilda’s Club will begin hosting weekly programs at The War Memorial every Wednesday. These include peer-to-peer support groups, family-focused sessions, and public education events—all free of charge. The club calls this the “Gilda’s Around Town” outreach. So for this upcoming Wednesday, take part in the following events on Lake St. Clair. Online registration is recommended.
