Preschool raises funds for employee battling cancer

A Whitefish preschool is rallying around one of it’s employees as she fights cancer.

Roxanna Reinke, of Columbia Falls, was diagnosed July 13 with stage IV cancer. She has already undergone surgery and will begin chemotherapy treatment in the coming weeks.

Reinke is the mother of three boys and is married to Alan Reinke. She has worked at Growing in God’s Love Childcare and Preschool in Whitefish for more than five years.

Her fellow co-workers have started an online fundraising campaign to help Reinke off-set medical expenses. They also organized a lemonade stand July 30 to get the preschool students involved in the campaign.
