Little 's big Welcome to Kim!

This week we welcome Kim, our new social work intern. She has been here for two weeks so far and loving it. She hails from Clintonville, Wis. and is currently studying in UW-Green Bay. Let’s learn a little more about Kim.

Hi NF community, I would like to introduce myself to everyone.  My name is Kim Burton and I am the newest intern at Littlest Tumor Foundation.  I am currently a student at UW-Green Bay working toward my masters degree in social work.  I grew up in the fox valley area and am happy to be back in the vicinity.  I left the area for about 10 years while I earned my bachelor's degree in biology from the College of St. Scholastica in Duluth, Minn.  Then I traveled to Nevada to volunteer with the Americorps. Later, I returned to Madison, Wis. after completing my assignment there and had been working hard to make a difference in that community.  I am excited to be back in the area and look forward to working with the LTF and learning and expanding my knowledge over the course of the next year.  

A Kind Little Reflection

Throughout August, the Littlest Tumor Foundation did 3,000 random acts of kindness to those around us. It’s been quite a trip even through the retreat. Some of us pushed carts, opened doors, baked cookies, cleaned up litter and trash and so much more. We’ve called old friends from the past and visited relatives. 

LTF even sent warm wishes to people in an assisted living center! With all these little acts, we hope to help make the Fox Cities and surrounding areas a better place to live, work, and play in. We firmly believe that everyone can give a little. What can you do to make someone's day brighter and better? What’s your little?

A Little Goodbye

Three of our LTF interns are hanging up the purple and are going to spread the principles of hope, love and compassion to their next endeavors. Let’s learn a little more about what they did for the foundation.

Kim was part of our social work branch of LTF. She spread the message of LTF across the Fox Valley and beyond! Pierson spearheaded our web presence. Seneca spent countless, but very fruitful hours, helping coordinate many of our activities from April’s Kids-On-Chemo to our Sam-i-am race and finally our Family Wellness Retreat.

We wish them the best of luck in the future!
