(Phoenixville, PA, December 2019) – The Cancer Center at Phoenixville Hospital received a
$2,500 donation from Pottsgrove High School. The funds were raised by Pottsgrove’s Booster
Club, Football, Boys Soccer, Volleyball and Cheerleading teams for the Cancer Center’s Patient
Assistance Fund.
Pottsgrove High School has been raising funds for patients of the Cancer Center for nine years,
donating over $10,000 thus far. Pottsgrove School Board Member Patti Grimm, a former patient
of the Cancer Center at Phoenixville Hospital, started the tradition of giving to the Patient
Assistance Fund after experiencing first-hand the support it provides. Patti has been cancer-free
for 10 years and was excited to reunite with Radiation Technician Tracey McCowen who helped
care for her during her treatment at Phoenixville Hospital.
