Local 1500 Members Raise Funds to Kick Cancer

Last week our Local 1500 charity team bundled up, laced up the cross-trainers and showed our community spirit in two amazing walks: the Leukemia Lymphoma Society's Light the Night Walk and the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk!

Light the Night Walk: Last year we raised nearly $8,000 for the walk, so we set a goal for 2015 of $10,000. We are so excited to announce that we have exceeded our Local's goal of $10,000! We have raised $17,328.46! And still going!

Nationally, the UFCW has raised $187,876 (that includes all Local Union's fundraising)! We're nearly at our collective goal of $200,000  thanks to all of your hard work!

Keep the momentum going and finish strong! We're still fundraising through December. You can visit our team page, host a fundraiser, or donate here.

Also be sure to send us your pics from your charity walks!
