The campaign began Oct. 4 and focuses on promoting breast cancer awareness.  Spielman lost his wife, Stefanie, to breast cancer in 2009, and will speak about “Strength in Commitment,” the impact of breast cancer.  He and his late wife are the authors of a book, “That’s Why I Am Here:  The Chris and Stefanie Spielman Story.”

Tickets are free and can be picked up at the Corner Shop Gift Shop at Union Hospital and Buehler’s in New Philadelphia.
