Chicken Salad Chick Rebate Day is an opportunity to support Journey Bags while enjoying a meal! A portion of purchases will be given back to Journey Bags to help us continue providing bags of comfort, encouragement, and resources to cancer patients.

Please share the event with your friends and family and encourage them to participate!

Journey Bags began when our founder, Jennifer Riley, saw a need to help cancer patients get connected to resources as they begin treatments. As Jennifer battled stage 3b ductal carcinoma breast cancer in 2021, she found herself searching for items that were not available in her rural town of Murray, Kentucky. Not only did she not have close access to things like wig shops, there were so many things she didn’t know she would need during her fight. What she did know, however, was that she wanted to give purpose to her diagnosis by forming a group that would make it a little easier for other cancer patients to navigate their cancer journeys. Jennifer gathered a group of family and friends who have all been affected by cancer either as a patient, a caregiver, or an immediate family member of a cancer patient. Her idea was to give each patient at their local hospital (Murray Calloway County Hospital) a bag full of items that would be potentially needed during treatments. Bags include the following:

Beanie
Cap
Peppermints
Tea Bags
Queezy Drops
Devotional Book
Water Bottle
Journal and Pen
Gripper Socks
Playing Cards
Lip Balm
Silk Pillow Case

For the ladies, we add:

Coloring Book
Colored Pencils
Mud Love Bracelet

Kids receive items such as:

Sketch Books

Additionally, every patient will receive access to a directory of resources that they will likely need during their journey. This directory will include links and contact information for the places they can find these things. This is, perhaps, one of the most important parts of our mission.
