Posted: December 6, 2012

GRANVILLE, Ohio—This Saturday, Dec. 8, Snapshots lounge and restaurant (925 River Road) will donate 25 percent of its proceeds to benefit Elizabeth’s Hope, a nonprofit with the goal of finding a cure for rare and inoperable brain tumors. Elizabeth’s Hope was founded by the friends, family and doctors of Liz Minter, a member of the Denison class of 2013, who succumbed this past May to gliomatosis cerebri, an aggressive, rare and inoperable brain tumor. Minter herself was a founder of the organization, which accepts direct donations at http://elizabethshope.com. She hoped that she could affect a positive change for others with her condition in the future. For more information, contact Meg Cronin at mcronin33@gmail.com or visit www.denison.edu. 

Cronin, a close friend of Minter, said, “It is very important to both Liz’s family and friends to continue to spread Liz’s love, even though she has left us. As we are closing in on our graduation, we want to leave behind Liz’s legacy and hopefully touch the hearts of others.”
