Local organization supports Brooklyn judges in quest for breast cancer awareness
The Jewish Association Serving the Aging (JASA) sold pink pens in a fundraising effort for breast cancer awareness. On Tuesday, JASA donated the monies to the Judges and Lawyers Breast Cancer Alert (JALBCA).
“(JALBCA) was nice enough to help us out last year so we do whatever we can to help them out,” said Sue Ann Partnow, Director of JASA. “They give a lot of lectures and workshops for different kinds of health issues to educate seniors and last year they spoke to JASA about breast cancer awareness.”
This year, they raised $405 from the pink pens sold. Last year, JASA sold pink pins to raise money for JALBCA.
