Fairway Cares was established to provide support to individuals and families dealing with critical illness, physical trauma, or the loss of a loved one. May you be inspired by these stories as we journey Beyond the Box. Fairway Cares is the charitable arm of Fairway Independent Mortgage Corporation. For over twenty years, Fairway and its 8,000-plus nationwide employees have demonstrated a deep caring for the communities and people they work with and serve. Through employee referrals, Fairway Cares provides the comfort of a care package or the support of financial assistance. While only Fairway employees can request a package, their impact is felt well outside of our organization. You can help us support those in need by donating at www.fairwaycares.org Produced by China Shop Productions www.chinashopproductions.com

She explains why it's difficult to ask for help or let friends and loved ones know what you are going through, and the regret that can come from that post treatment.
