Bomgaars in Carroll recently presented a check to the St. Anthony Regional Cancer Center for more than $3,000 from money raised during the store’s fall “Ladies Night.” On Oct. 23, women shopped at 107 participating Bomgaars locations, and the company collected five percent of the sales to donate back to each store’s chosen cancer center, hospital, or ladies’ organization. The 2022 Ladies’ Night raised $113,035.71, and $3,168.21 was donated to the St. Anthony Cancer Center. Director Lori Pietig says, “The donation from Bomgaars will be used to purchase three patient monitoring systems that capture patient’s vitals in the medical oncology clinic. The current systems are 15 years old and get much use with our high patient volume.” The Cancer Center had a remarkable 3,300 patient visits to medical oncology in 2022. A photo from last week’s donation is included below.
