These were all picked by Tanta on Saturday.

Please note: I'll post some links tomorrow for some Mortgage Pig™ clothing articles that Tanta was working on. The proceeds will be donated as a split between OSUMC and UMMS.

Tanta was treated for ovarian cancer over the course of 2.5 years by the caring staff at the University of Maryland Medical System and the Greenebaum Cancer Center in Baltimore, MD. Donate here.

She was cared for at the very end of her life by the extraordinary staff at The James Cancer Center at the Ohio State University Medical Center in Columbus, OH. Donate here.

National Public Radio has long been Tanta’s favorite. Here is the information for one of the local stations in her area.

While a student at Illinois State University, Tanta volunteered much of her time and writing efforts to the Rape Crisis Center. The Sexual Assault Prevention and Survivor Services program at ISU continues that work (please indicate in “other”). Donate here.

Tanta was a member of Normal Community High School’s Drama Club and made headlines at 17 with her impassioned plea to the School Board to allow the students to do the play “The Bad Seed”, considered controversial at the time due to the subject matter and language in the script. The school does not have online donations but checks can be mailed to 3900 E. Raab Rd, Normal, Il 61761. Att: Caroline Fox

Thanks to all.
