We are pleased to announce the addition of an Eastern Iowa Chapter to Strands of Strength. This chapter will be continuing the mission of Strands of Strength by providing wigs to cancer patients to cover the significant hair loss that can accompany treatment. These wigs help them look better, feel better and rejoin their community during treatment. We are pleased to have the support of the following partners and the leadership of Nicole Gerdin.
