Thanks to Gateway To The Cure business participants’ donations, along with events held throughout the year, the Town of Thurmont was able to present Patty Hurwitz with a check for $21,000 at the November 19, 2019, town meeting.

A few businesses came out to talk about their promotion/donation at the check presentation: Catoctin Veterinary Clinic, Gateway Orthodontics, Emmitsburg News Journal, Roy Rogers, and the CYA Soccer Club. It was a night to shine for the Town of Thurmont, to show how great the businesses, residents, volunteers, and CYA Soccer Club really are, and how a community comes together each year for this incredible campaign. All proceeds from Gateway To The Cure are donated to the FMH Hurwitz Breast Cancer Fund.

Fundraiser participants proudly presented a check for $21,000 to the Patty Hurwitz Breast Cancer Fund at a Thurmont Town meeting in November.

Drumroll, please…. Thanks to all of the generous Thurmont Think Pink Business Contributors, and all who patronized these businesses, as well as to all who purchased Thurmont Think Pink “Gateway To The Cure” merchandise, and all those who participated in the Thurmont Think Pink 5K! On Tuesday, November 29, 2016, the Thurmont Think Pink Third Annual check total was $13,675! Add to that the proceeds from the Catoctin High School Football, Cheerleading, and Crazies’ Pink Out Night, which totaled $750, and the result is a whopping $14,425, all donated to the Patty Hurwitz Fund at Frederick Memorial Hospital.

The Patty Hurwitz Fund at FMH brings a brighter tomorrow for all of those diagnosed with breast cancer or are currently undergoing treatment at Frederick Memorial Hospital.
