Fundraising Success
The Wright Warriors team raised $2,556 for the American Cancer Society and Making Strides Against Breast Cancer during the month of October.
"This is a record for us! We were so proud to walk on behalf of the Wright Warriors! The donations will support research as well as patient services. The month is over, but the need doesn't end in November! Join us next year as the Wright Warriors will keep on walking," said Kristine Rickert, team captain, who was among the16 walkers who participated.
