(Cushing, Okla.) Baker Pharmacy is urging everyone to “Paint the Town Purple” every Friday as a way to support Relay for Life and the American Cancer Society. New t-shirts are available at Baker Pharmacy, located at 1022 E. Cherry, for just $15 (sizes Small – 2 XL). The new design has “Pray for a Miracle” on the front of the t-shirt and “Find a Cure” on the left sleeve. Also available at Baker’s – purple bracelets with trinity crosses on the left of the words: “Pray for a Miracle” and “Find a Cure” on the other side. Bracelets are just $2 each.
All proceeds are being donated to the American Cancer Society.
Owner Doug Baker has been named the “Hero of Hope” for the American Cancer Society. A year ago, Baker lost his wife Karen to cancer. His strong faith and ministry as a Hero of Hope serves as an example to others who have loved ones battling cancer.
The sale of the t-shirts is a fundraiser for the Baker Pharmacy Relay for Life team.
“I am so proud of his (Doug’s) strength, his faith, and his ministry through the American Cancer Society as the Hero of Hope,” Marcia Pixler, fellow Relay for Life Baker Pharmacy team member said. “What an awesome example! I know Karen is proud of him as we (at Baker Pharmacy) are.”
This year’s Relay for Life goal is $91,000. Last year teams raised over $89,000 for the American Cancer Society.
Cushing-Drumright Relay for Life will be held June 1st.
