My name is Shannon and I'm writing on behalf of my lifelong friend, Kimberly Pavao-Botelho. Her group of longtime friends want to help in her time of need. Kim was diagnosed with Breast Cancer about 4 weeks ago. She is scheduled for a double mastectomy at the end of May. It is unknown at this time if Kim will need chemo and radiation. She will also need reconstruction surgery. Kim will be out of work for a period of time to recover from her surgeries. She may also be out for further treatment.

 

We would like to help Kim financially so that she has the means to pay her bills and keep her farm going. Anyone who knows Kim, knows that her passion are her animals. Kim owns K&K Acres in Swansea MA where she has goats, chickens, horses, rabbits, turkeys, an emu and pig. Kim is also a bee keeper and tends to her bees. Kim has been a 4H Leader and has children come to her farm and educates them on animals. Any funds collected will be to help Kim pay her household bills, keep her farm up and running and for residual medical bills that won't be covered by insurance.

 

Thank you for your consideration in helping Kim. We love her and she would do the same for any of us.

 

Sincerely,

Shannon & Kim's closest friends...
