The woman is off work for a six month period because of her treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Spiros came up with the initiative of gift certificates, which 80 percent of its value, would be turned over to the family. \u201cThe family has spent a lot of money over the years, and now was the time that I could give back a little bit as a thank-you for their continued support,\u201d added Cloutier. <\/p>\n<p>Spiros posted the offer of gift certificates, on their Facebook page, which usually garnishes up to 700 views. The inventiveness has garnished 5,000 views and 75 shares, with publicity from other local Montreal media. \u201cAfter that, we began getting straight up donations from&nbsp;people outside our delivery zone. We travel to your home to sell you a gift certificate, or just accept a contribution. Anything to facilitate matters,\u201d continued Cloutier.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wish them well and hope everyone takes time to give Spiros a call and order a gift certificate. They will bring it to your door for you, something that is amazing to say the least. By doing so you are helping this young lady, so money doesn\u2019t get in the way of healing,\u201d said Pointe Claire resident, BJ Walker. <\/p>\n<p>Currently, the program has reached 80 percent of its goal. The offer will run until Feb. 16. The extra money will aid in additional costs associated with treatment. The family in question spoke with The Suburban on condition of anonymity; also, on the impact of this project.
