Seven Mountains Media and Northwest Hospital Foundation joined together for Breast Cancer Awareness Month to raise funds for the UPMC Hillman Cancer Center at UPMC Northwest. With the help of several local businesses, nearly $900 was raised to support those locally battling cancer.
Throughout the month of October, participating businesses displayed pink pumpkins which they encouraged their customers to sign. Customers were also able to make a monetary donation to help meet patient needs.
Participating businesses included Anderson Furniture, Career Concepts, Polk Main Street Market, Oil City Warehouse Mall, All Seasons Temporaries, The Dive Bar Hydration and Wellness Lounge, Marsh Home Center, and Shambaugh Towing.
