Marianne Adam, Comfort Bag Project Coordinator for the Breast Cancer Support Services of Berks County, and Angela Wambaugh, Office Manager for Waterfall Gardens, a landscape firm in Mohnton, announced a month long promotion which will also raise funds for Breast Cancer Support Services.
Marianne and Angela are longtime friends who share a love of gardens and are both survivors of breast cancer. Breast Cancer Support Services provides comfort bags to newly diagnosed breast cancer patients through local surgeons and hospitals. Comfort bags contain items that provide comfort, hope and support to these women at what is a very stressful time in their lives.
In observance of the Breast Cancer Awareness Month of October, Waterfall Gardens will be donating $25 to the group for each deposit on new landscaping projects scheduled in the month of October or $50 with the scheduling of a Pink Pansy Planting of 10 flats or more of winter pansies.
According to Angela, Fall is an excellent time for planting and otherwise preparing your landscape for the winter months ahead and being a survivor of breast cancer herself, the idea for the promotion came into being. Waterfall Gardens plans to present a check to Breast Cancer Support Services of Berks County in mid-November at the conclusion of the promotion.
Call Angela at Waterfall Gardens, 610-777-5159, for further details.
