Barton Ravlin Chapter (WCA)

The Barton Ravlin Chapter of the Woman’s Cancer Association, BR, is made up of 85 members and is named after Madelon Ravlin, WCA founding president. Chapter meetings are held at members’ homes each month. The primary objective of the chapter is to support the Woman’s Cancer Association’s mission to raise funds for cancer research at UHealth, Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, meet the immediate needs of cancer patients, and participate in cancer education programs. We raise funds by:

• Making Spirits Bright holiday party filled with dancing & a live auction
• Grape Therapy: enjoying a glass of wine while learning more about cancer from local experts

Giselle Armour, bringing gifts to cancer patients.

Each December, the Barton-Ravlin Chapter of the WCA provides beautiful gift comfort bags for cancer patients at the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, the only NCI-designated cancer research center in south Florida. University of Miami Hospitals. Gisele Armour, chair of the Silver Lady Fund, organizes this philanthropic project, and BR members get to experience the genuine appreciation of the cancer patients firsthand.
