Today, 3News' Danielle Wiggins is celebrating her "Goodbye Cancerversary" as she also gives an update on her partnership to create a traveling salon to give cancer patients wigs in Northeast Ohio.

Here's more on Danielle's story...

Call it a driving force.

“Nobody going through cancer should have to worry about coming up with money for a wig,” says columnist, author and breast cancer survivor, Regina Brett. “We can't take care of everything, but we can take care of that.”

Brett is committed to making sure a mobile wig salon, like salons at The Gathering Place that bear her name, are cruising through streets to assist women battling cancer.

Brett and 3News' Danielle Wiggins have teamed up to raise $25,000 for the mobile wig salon initiative by my one year “Goodbye Cancerversary” on March 22.

We hit that goal 12 days into the campaign. If donations reach $50,000, The Gathering Place can purchase a van by their Race for the Place event on Sunday, June 4.
