Last year over 130 people were in attendance to raise more than $26,000.00 for a total of $244,000.00 in the course of twelve years. Local merchants donated gifts and certificates, which were offered at a silent auction or given as door prizes. Participants raised money through pledged donations.
The mission of the Connecticut Breast Health Initiative Inc. is to make a difference locally in the fight against breast cancer through education and research. CT BHI focuses on supporting Connecticut women and families through breast cancer research, education, screening, treatment and support. Over the past Six years, the chief recipients of BHI grants have been Drs. Joan Caron and Lori Wilson of UConn Health Center and Dr. Michael DiGiovanna of Yale New Haven Hospital. These researchers have been developing promising cancer fighting drugs and cancer detecting procedures. The funds will also help to establish on-going clinical research.
