The “Look Good Feel Better” cancer support program helps those who are suffering from the side effects of cancer treatment.

Tony and his staff were an integral part of the “Look Good Feel Better” cancer program in Las Vegas. When other attempts to get the program going and find local support were failing, Janet Rawlings asked Tony for his assistance. Tony was more than accepting and threw himself into the worthy cause.

Tony and his staff helped the women choose wigs and personalize the wig for each person with a custom cut. He and his staff also taught the women make up tricks, how to tie a scarf as a head covering and which hats would look best for them.

Women who arrived with the “weight of the world on their shoulders” left smiling and beautiful with knowledge and motivation to help them get through the sometimes rough side effects of cancer treatment. Tony feels like his involvement with Look Good Feel Better is one of the greatest accomplishments of his career and life.
