The 2nd Annual Bras Across the Bridge was a smashing success!

C100′s Team Moya had another very successful fundraising event this year, the 2nd Annual Bras Across the Bridge for the 2010 Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure and we couldn’t have done it without such good C100 listeners.  For about 3 weeks at the beginning of September we once again hit the airwaves asking C100 listeners to get together with family, friends and co-workers to collect their old bras that were otherwise headed to the garbage and donate them to our Bras Across the Bridge fundraiser.  It is a really great fundraising idea as people were being asked to donate old bras and not money, that’s where our partners came in Samuel and Co and Joseph Ribkoff donated $1 for every old bra we collected, we managed to collect 8500 bras and Samuel and Co topped up their donation to $10,000.
