Friends Helping Friends fundraiser planned Oct. 22

The Butler Breast Cancer and Women’s Cancer Support Group, in partnership with Boscov’s, will hold its annual Friends Helping Friends fundraiser Tuesday, Oct. 22.

Boscov’s shoppers can stop by the shoe department to obtain a discount shopping pass that can be used storewide.

Cheryl Schaefer, head of the Butler Breast Cancer and Women’s Cancer Support Group, said the pass will cost $5 and enable shoppers to get a 25% discount on almost everything in the store that day.

“They can get them ahead of time or the day of the event,” Schaefer said. “That day we are at the back door by shoes from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. Boscov’s stays open for extended hours for that sale.”

Organizations can sell the passes to their supporters and keep 100% of the $5 donation to further their causes, she said.

Schaefer said all proceeds collected during the event will go to Butler County cancer patients to help pay for items that might not be covered by insurance.

“My question always is ‘Do you live in Butler County?,’” Schaefer said. “If they live in Butler County, I tell them send me the bill.”

Tickets can be purchased ahead of time by calling Schaefer at 724-282-4421 or the day of in the shoe department.
