Third CBR11 Donation to the American Cancer Society

December 29, 2019 by MsWas 3 Comments

I’m thrilled to announce that thanks to  your generosity, we were able to donate $1,350 to the American Cancer Society today. That’s the largest single donation we’ve ever made, and it brings our annual total to $1,675. Over all these years, we’ve donated $6,600 so far to the ACS in AlabamaPink’s name. Thank you everyone, from the bottom of my heart.
