NORWAY — Diane Madden, the executive director for The Cancer Resource Center of Western Maine in Norway, recently received a donation from The Comfort Angels.

The Comfort Angels, founded by Mary Dempsey, craft handmade items to bring support, comfort and smiles to others. The group of more than a handful of volunteers came together over two years ago.

More than a dozen Comfort Angels meet once a week and make heart pillows, afghans and port protectors, among other items.

Those looking for ways to be involved or make a donation can email comfortangels2020@gmail.com.
