Breast Cancer Awareness from around the region

Branches Gift Shop Goes Pink! 
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and we are Promoting 10 percent off everything pink in the gift shop! Pink Ribbon hats, watches, scarves, and shirts were brought in to increase awareness in the community at Lake Forest Place. A table on cancer prevention will be displayed later this month featuring our dietitians and antioxidants!

For Breast Cancer Awareness month, the dining staff made and decorated homemade heart shaped sugar cookies and individually bagged them and sold them for 1 dollar each with all proceeds being donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation.  The resident’s and staff were all very happy to support such a good cause and a few people gave extra money to be donated!  Two members of the Morrison Team are breast cancer survivors themselves so this meant a lot to everyone!  Thank you to all who participated in some way!

In honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month Smith Crossing’s Executive Sous Chef, Monica Tooth, made pink ribbon cupcakes.  Anyone who purchased a cherry chocolate chip cupcake was given a pink breast cancer support bracelet.  We hope that our efforts remind everyone of those that we have lost due to breast cancer, those who have survived, and those who are fighting breast cancer.
