Big Y Donates to BMC Women's Imaging Center
 |
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. — All Big Y Supermarkets donated proceeds from their October initiative "Partners of Hope" to 31 local breast cancer support groups throughout Massachusetts and Connecticut.
In Berkshire County, Berkshire Medical Center's Women's Imaging Center received a portion of the nearly $200,000 donated.
This program reflects the partnership, commitment and support of breast cancer awareness and research that are so vital for many. In October, Big Y raised $195,000.
"Despite the pandemic, breast cancer affects thousands of women and more men each year. Through our Partners of Hope
campaign, we want to not only promote breast cancer awareness but also save lives through early detection and care," Big Y CEO, Charles D'Amour said.
Since 2007, Big Y has raised well over $2 million dollars to support local breast cancer initiatives.
