Shalimar Poulin is a popular and much loved lady. She is a teacher, she is a friend and now, she is in a battle against cancer and could use support and donations.

Her Team Poulin GoFundMe page is up to nearly $3,700. The goal is $15,000. There is a way to go but if all of those people who she has taught and mentored come to her aid, reaching will be no problem.

Here is a message from Shalimar's sister, Val:

My sister is an amazing woman; a gifted teacher who has devoted herself to her career and her students; a daughter, sister, cousin, niece, and auntie who is loved and cherished by her family; a great friend who gives so much of herself. I have looked up to my sister since childhood and as she faces this fight against cancer I am awed by her strength and determination. I know in my heart she will beat this; however, this fight comes at a cost...mental, physical, and financial. I am so happy that she has made the decision to launch this page. Thanks to all who have already given. I am so amazed at the support shown in just two days! I pray that this will continue until her goal is met. I think I can speak for our entire family when I say that we all will sleep better knowing that Shalimar may come out of this with her head above water. We are so blessed! Thank you!

Anything you could do...even if its only sharing this story...will help.
