Bay Ridge Cares going gold for kids with cancer
In an effort to spread a message of hope, members of Bay Ridge Cares, a grass-roots charity group, are conducting their second annual Go Gold Bay Ridge to raise awareness of pediatric cancer.
Bay Ridge Cares is asking fellow residents to place gold ribbons in their windows and to patronize stores that display signs emblazoned with gold ribbons.
Teri Brennan, a member of the Board of Directors of Bay Ridge Cares, organized the “Go Gold Bay Ridge” effort.
Justin Brannan, vice president and founder of Bay Ridge Cares, said the Go Gold campaign is being conducted in tribute to kids with cancer. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Last year’s inaugural campaign was a smashing success, according to Brannan.
