Those we meet along the way


Battling Life Together continues to grow and continues to touch the lives of people in many states. Our mission to have a positive impact on society is contagious and promising. The impact of those we touch and those experiencing the possibilities of how just a few people from a small section of NC can influence the lives of so many is overwhelming. 

Just a few months ago a young lady reached out to BLT because she found our organization through a mutual friend on Facebook and found we share a common bond. What we didn't know then was how our lives would link together in such a positive and powerful way.

Elysia Skinner Quinn was just starting an organization called Strength and Hope when she contacted BLT- 


Also take a look at:

The Mission of Strength and Hope is:


The Strength and Hope Foundation was created to 
support cancer survivors through partnerships with other organizations that address the unique issues survivors face. We look to direct funds to survivorship programs and collaborate with other agencies to provide information to survivors, their caregivers and loved ones. A cancer survivor is anyone who has heard the words, “You have cancer.”

Elysia and her team are preparing to submit and to obtain their 501c3 non profit status and in the meantime working diligently to meet and exceed the goals of their organization and finding amazing support along the way. 

BLT is very excited to work together with the Strength and Hope Foundation to spread the word and help families during their journey with Cancer and in many cases continue that bond afterward as well. 

BLT would like to invite you to share in this venture and pay it forward by first going to the Strength and Hope Foundations Facebook page and following them as they grow and watch in amazement how.... Together we can make a difference... Together we WILL make a difference.... We are "Battling Life Together" so you are Never Alone in this fight!

Thank you for your kindness, for your support, for your prayers.

Partners in the world of Cancer

It is amazing where the bridges you cross will take you. Almost three years ago this journey began with a few friends. Now we have grown in many ways. So many lives that have touched ours. People we never met before become dear friends, old friends become new treasures.

Extended families and friends become new supporters and advocates of the Battling Life Together mission.

The BLT Ladies attend many fund raising events and organize a few of our own to keep the Hope Alive.

Just recently a fabulous event at a local Ruby Tuesday restaurant brought us the realization of the number of people that can be touched by our growing organization.

Joining forces with other agencies gives power to the potential that Together we can and we will make the positive difference in the world that we intend.

Stay tuned for many updates to our friends, partners and advocates as we continue to grow, to strengthen and to reach out to more and more people that need a little reminder they are Never Alone.

The June/July 2013 edition of the Guilford County Womens Journal was a blessing to have our article published. Hope everyone picked up a copy... Page 27.
