Description: Rina Fitria has Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma, which is cancer in the lymph nodes. Rina was a student at Oklahoma State University before cancer interrupted her course work. She is only twenty-one years old. The cost of the bone marrow transplant is $180,000. Rina and her family must come up with the funds themselves before the transplant can be provided.
To help with the cost the Nightingale Theater is putting on "Cancer Schmancer Comedy Jam", an Improv Benefit Show. There will be different troupes all coming together for one night to raise money and have a fun in the spirit to help Rina. The show is free but we will be accepting donations.
