WHAT:
After a successful paper icon drive in April to benefit the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation, representatives from Dunkin’ Donuts Las Vegas will present a $7,554 check to the organization on August 3. The donations were collected to help send kids to Camp Cartwheel, a three-night camping experience designed to give critically ill children time to have fun and just enjoy being kids.
Each summer, Camp Cartwheel provides over 200 children with opportunities to swim, hike, canoe, and rock wall climb with their siblings at Torino Ranch. The program originated in 1996. Jeffrey Gordon, president and CEO of Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation and clients from the organization will be on hand to accept the check from Dunkin’ Donuts’ representatives.
