DERBY - For the seventh-straight year, The Ansonia Rod & Gun Club is generously supporting the Annual 5K Walk/Run to Benefit The Center for Cancer Care at Griffin Hospital with a donation of $5,000 to be the event’s Finish Line Sponsor.
The Club’s continued support of the 5K Walk/Run is thanks to the tireless efforts of Treasurer Horace Behrle, a cancer survivor and Volunteer Ambassador at the Center.
“Fighting cancer and caring for cancer patients is important to the Club because we’ve lost a few guys to cancer and we know how hard it can be on a person,” Behrle said.
The 9th Annual 5K Walk/Run to benefit the Center for Cancer Care at Griffin Hospital is a non-competitive, family-friendly event set Sept. 30 at 9 a.m. at the Center, 350 Seymour Ave.
Registration is $25. The registration fees will increase by $5 after Sept. 15.
Sponsorship opportunities
Proceeds are earmarked for special needs of cancer patients, such as support for transportation, groceries and wig and salon services, as well as patient support programs at the Center for Cancer Care at Griffin Hospital.
Area businesses and community groups are invited to support 5K Walk/Run.
Sponsorship opportunities include signage at the event, logos on the event promotional materials and T-shirts, and opportunities to have a table to distribute products at the event or put items, coupons, or promotional material in participant give-away bags.
This is a press release from Griffin Hospital.
