Dawn, Grant Recipient The Floor Covering Industry Foundation helped Dawn take the first steps to getting her life back on track after undergoing chemotherapy to treat ovarian cancer.
The grant from FCIF helped to alleviate the financial burden she faced while undergoing chemotherapy. “I am so grateful,” shared Dawn. “You have no idea. The grant has allowed me to sleep again at night. I can pay my bills again on time.” Dawn, who has enjoyed working in the flooring industry for 20 years, learned about FCIF and its benefits from the owners of her company. After completing her final chemotherapy treatment, Dawn says coming home to her first check from FCIF felt like a dream come true.
“This grant is the most amazing gift I could have received,” she said. “I’m so overwhelmed with gratitude. I still feel like I’m dreaming.” With cancer and treatments behind her, Dawn can get back to doing the things she loves, like selling flooring, spending time with her loving family, traveling and doing craft projects.
