PURSE BINGO RAISES $7K FOR WALK TO END ALZHEIMER’S

Close to 100 women in attendance vied for 20 name brand purses, participated in a silent auction, raffle contest and a 50/50 to raise an amazing $3,500. An anonymous donor will be matching the proceeds to bring the donation to $7,000.

Marketing Director Camille Garrison states, “The kudos go to committee members Laura Storie and Jana Powell who have been strong advocates for the Alzheimer’s Association for many years. Their hard work in supporting this event is what made it so successful.”

Alzheimer’s disease is the 6th leading cause of death in the United States and kills more than breast cancer and prostate cancer combined.
