Dozens of volunteers gathered to help kickoff the annual Gift of Life Pink Shopping Card Campaign. Special guests included Marie and Donny Osmond. Each year, the campaign raises thousands of dollars for mammograms for those in need. Last year, the program provided 1600 free mammograms. The pink shopping card sells for $50, but offers 20 percent discount at more than 600 area merchants. The shopping card can be used from Oct. 21 thought November 7. As part of the annual fundraiser, there is also an evening set aside to celebrate breast cancer survivors and a program featuring a special guest.This year's guest is Marie Osmond who will be in Beaumont on Oct. 18. I'm proud to be a member of the committee. As always, more volunteers are needed so if you're interested call the office number below.
