Kelly Johnson had experienced her own scare after finding a lump in her breast just last year. Sharing her story with her clients, she had come to discover just how many women have been through similar experiences with cancer or had a love one who was diagnosed. One client in particular, Esther Nevarez, shared the story of her friend Sally Naylor-Kern, and it inspired her to take matters into her own hands.

Enter Sally Naylor-Kern, a 39-year-old a former Waterford resident who didn’t imagine the scenario, but instead is battling with a rare form of ovarian cancer. A graduate of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Sally enjoyed a successful career as a senior producer at DraftFCB advertising agency. Last October, Sally underwent an extreme surgery to remove her tumors and restore her ability to eat. She still needs additional treatment to continue beating cancer — and her resources are running out. 

Shopping is usually not at the top of your list after you or a friend is diagnosed with cancer. So, let’s give cancer the middle finger by treating yourselves to a new dress and Sally to donations to pay those bills! Join Chi Chi and the Greek from Friday, Feb. 3rd through Sunday, Feb 5th!

20% of all sales will be donated to help save the life of Sally Naylor-Kern. We will host a variety of activities all 3 days of the event: including hors d’oeuvres and a raffle for $100 Chi Chi and the Greek gift certificate each day. Emmy-nominated makeup artist, Joey Killmeyer, will be demonstrating makeup techniques on Sunday, February 5th from 12-4pm. Local jewelry designer and artist, Renee Deardeuff, will be displaying her Boo-B Dolls created just for breast cancer patients and survivors. Join us to shop, donate or come to share your story! 

The event will be taking place during normal business hours.

Any questions about the event or if you would like to make a donation—other than your business—please call: (248) 255-5039 or email: kellydeux@yahoo.com.
