“Dear PoPville,
I wanted to share a fundraiser that I’ve organized to raise funds to prevent and cure breast cancer! I was diagnosed in 2019 at just 34 years old and finished treatment in 2020 (RIGHT before Covid hit). Unfortunately, this is all too common – breast cancer is now the most common cancer worldwide, and I’m dedicated to doing what I can to end this terrible disease.During the first year of the fundraiser in 2022, we raised $9,205, and with donation matches, the grand total was $20,440!
I’m hosting an in-person benefit bingo night called “Boobs for Bingo” THIS Wednesday, October 19 at the new Whitlow’s in Shaw. It’s going to be a fun night of bingo with gift card prizes donated by local businesses. Tickets can be purchased here.
I’m also selling plants, candles and raffle tickets – available at www.plantitpink.com! (I currently have 80 plants in my little condo!). Raffles include:
VIP Tour and Coffee Tasting at Compass Coffee
Wine tasting led by a Certified Sommelier for up to 8 people at The Bottle Collection
Private brewery tour, $50 gift card, stemware and apparel at Sapwood Cellars in Columbia, MD
Philips Zoom Whitening at Dupont Dental
“Date Night Package” at Alamo Drafthouse
$100 gift card to the newly opened Chesapeake Crab Shack & Bar
All proceeds will go towards the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.”
