ALPHA MEDIA markets across the U.S. worked hard to support and raise funds for the AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY’s "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer" campaign during the month of OCTOBER.
ALPHA MEDIA held an internal competition to see which market could donate the most to the cause. The total donated was $4,325, with WEST PALM BEACH, FL, in the lead with $2,380.
ALPHA MEDIA markets, RICHMOND, VA; LINCOLN, NE; CANTON, OH; LOUISVILLE, KY; SAGINAW, MI and PORTLAND, OR, also partnered with their local initiatives.
