Help The Fight Will Hold Banquet BY CATHY MOLITORIS
“We are people who help people,” said Lynda Charles, cofounder and president of Help the Fight. “Our mission is as simple as that.” Help the Fight is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping anyone currently receiving breast cancer treatment or anyone in need of screening to detect breast cancer. The organization will host its 13th annual fundraising banquet on Saturday, Oct. 1, from 4:30 to 9:30 p.m. The event will be held at Spooky Nook Sports, 75 Champ Blvd., Manheim. “This is our main fundraiser for the year, and it’s a blast,” Charles stated, adding that there are a number of giveaway drawings and other opportunities to win prizes. The evening also includes an allyou-can-eat buffet dinner as well as both silent and live auctions. “We will auction off everything from artwork to quality jewelry, gift baskets, designer handbags and destination trips,” Charles said. “We work really hard to get donations of items. We pound the pavement.” See Help The Fight pg 2 The Reading Buccaneers will perform in exhibition during a competition at Hempfield High School.
