To culminate their October Breast Cancer Awareness Month  activities, employees of Millington Savings Bank held a bake sale at their headquarters on Oct. 26, with the proceeds earmarked for “Making Strides.”

Every “Making Strides Against Breast Cancer” event is an inspiring opportunity to unite as a community to honor breast cancer survivors, raise awareness about steps that can be taken to reduce the risk of getting breast cancer, and raise money to help the American Cancer Society fight the disease.

Since Making Strides began 20 years ago, breast cancer death rates have declined more than 32 percent.  Pictured above manning the baked goods table are bank employees: (l-r) Alyssa Edelmann, Karen Task, Shawn Greder, Sandy Memoli, Ryan Dempsey, Sakinah Garland and Deborah Downes.
