The Loomis General Construction Unit #3510 recently made a donation from the IBEW 1245 Community Fund to local 1245 member Heather Brassfield, so she could participate in the Avon 39 Walk to End Breast Cancer in San Francisco. Brassfield has been a strong supporter of breast cancer awareness ever since 2009, when her sister-in-law lost a 10 year battle with breast cancer, leaving behind her husband and two daughters.
According to their website, AVON 39 helps fund research, awareness, and education while providing assistance for families currently battling breast cancer. Net funds raised will directly benefit the Bay Area and help make sure that care programs nationwide, as well as national research programs, have the resources to make the most progress possible to help obliterate breast cancer.
