October Was Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Thank you to everyone who participated in making October 2024, breast cancer awareness month, a very memorable month of getting together with other survivors, attending events to honor them, and increasing donations to keep My Hope Bag serving those with breast cancer. The wonderful people who set up fundraisers for My Hope Bag are listed below.

Please enjoy reading about these selfless organizations.

Texas Roadhouse – Owner James Bleil and Local Store Marketer Cassie Hamilton welcomed My Hope Bag with open arms. They decorated a tree with pink ornaments and informed their guests how they could contribute to My Hope Bag’s service to breast cancer patients with their donations. They raised $3195 for My Hope Bag and presented it as $50 gift cards for My Hope Bag to present to women going through their breast cancer journey.

Mesa Police Department—During the month of October, the Mesa Police Department sold various commemorative items for their Pink Patch Project, and the profits from those items were donated to My Hope Bag. Various pink police items also contributed to profits. Assistant Chief Ed Wessing, Mesa Police Department, presented My Hope Bag with a check for $4630.87 so My Hope Bag can continue to fill tote bags with items each new warrior will need during their breast cancer journey.

Nuvei Scottsdale – Lori Barbarotto and employees of Nuvei Scottsdale held a bake sale and raised $787 to donate to My Hope Bag. It looks like they had fun selling all those yummy desserts. I told them if they do a bake sale again, we would love to come and help them sell. Who can resist women in pink??

Phillips Law Group—Thank you, Phillips Law Group, for donating $2375 from their “On Wednesdays, We Wear Pink” campaign throughout the year. We enjoy seeing the employees donning pink on Wednesdays and knowing that for each one who does, Phillips donates to My Hope Bag. It’s really a fun campaign.

Bikers for Boobies – To this wonderful organization, we thank you for your donation of $3000. We were honored to receive this donation from your October 2023 Motorcycle Run.

Thank you all for your support and for supporting breast cancer awareness!!

Daimler Truck North America Supports My Hope Bag

September 24, 2023

Daimler Truck NA holds a charity event/dinner as part of their Annual Parts Conference. This year, Daimler Truck chose to support My Hope Bag as the honored charity. Daimler’s Sandra Todd told My Hope Bag, “I selected your charity because I love that you put together a Hope Bag for those who are going through breast cancer. I think it’s amazing that the people who deliver the bags are also breast cancer survivors or caregivers who understand what the person is going through. I love everything about what you are doing to help those through an extremely tough time in their life.”

Sandra continued, “As we are ending the month of September and going into the beginning of Breast Cancer Awareness month in October, I thought what better way to end the month than to share your organization with our event to help kick off the next month! My company would like to make a $10,000 donation for My Hope Bag.” Other donations during the evening totaled $ 1,300. Thank you, Daimler, for your generosity.

My Hope Bag shared a little about how it helps men and women with breast cancer. Having a predominantly male audience allowed us to encourage men to have an annual breast cancer checkup, as well as women. It was great to share that information with over 400 people at the event. If you want more information about men’s breast cancer, please contact info@myhopebag.org. Thank you, Daimler Truck NA!
