October promotions benefit breast cancer research

This month is filled with opportunities to make personal purchases that also benefit the Hutchinson Center's breast cancer research. For the 10th consecutive year, when you buy a bottle of FAT bastard wine, a portion of the proceeds will benefit breast cancer patients, awareness and research, including the work of the Center. The wine company will donate 25 cents for every bottle sold in a restaurant or retail store through the end of October.
