The concert series opens with an impressive multi-genre line-up, some of which had their own personal battle with cancer. Alaskan native Ken Peltier, a talented musician, has assembled a group of artists who have gathered in support of this mission. Darryl Worley, who saw a need in his own community and opened a cancer treatment center to help with this cause, and country singer Wade Hayes has beaten colon cancer twice, but has since led the battle with cancer and looks forward to singing at the Heliofest. The youngest artist Amber Patino, who is enthusiastic about many charities and to support JUGS, travels from Texas to her former home state Alaska to sing at the Heliofest. All these artists and our community came together for HELIOFEST to celebrate the joy of music and to raise awareness and to support the non-profit organization for cancer patients.
JUGS is a non-profit cancer aid organization founded by Lynn Nordland. During her own battle with cancer, Lynn was inspired to start JUGS when she saw a lack of support and resources for other cancer patients in Alaska. The JUGS (Just Us Girls Support) mission is to provide hope, activities, and resources to women (and soon to be men) in Alaska who have been diagnosed with cancer.
The funds we receive will be used to provide direct support to cancer patients and survivors and their families in Alaska. Our goal is to grow into the surrounding communities, build a resource guide accessible on a large database website, and be able to offer telemedicine advice. Thief resources will help doctors, cancer patients, survivors, and families.
JUGS Event Coordinator Christian Mulkey aka Mrs. Alaska America 2020 holds monthly meetings throughout the year in a supportive setting to engage with women diagnosed with cancer. At these meetings, the women take part in various activities with other women who know why they are or have been confronted. These events promote a positive and healing environment that brings women with cancer together. Refreshments and a take-away craft or souvenir are included in these monthly activities.
This non-profit organization was founded in 2018 and HELIOFEST is honored to support Lynn Nordland and JUGS in their endeavor to raise funds to help those in need in our own community. Our goal is to provide monthly support meetings, resource guides with tele-health counseling and care packages to patients and their families.
This unique storefront also supports the local economy by providing sales and food truck space for Alaskan businesses. We are honored to be sponsored by our local community and the Hollywood entertainment community. Sponsors include Wee B’s, Seven North, Wasilla RAM, Barrett Insurance, Mat-Su Valley Cancer Center, Cleaning’s a Breeze, Mat-Su Resort, Everett’s, Show Boss, Midnight Sun Oncology, Anchorage and Valley Radiation Therapy, Midnight Sun Tanning , Radio stations 94/7 Alternative Anchorage and Kimball Entertainment.
