Sunrise Optimist Club of Yuma donates $7,000 check to AdvoKATE Foundation
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - Over the weekend, the Sunrise Optimist Club of Yuma presented a check to the AdvoKATE Foundation.
The club raised $7,000 through a bowling fundraiser in November for the foundation, which supports Yuma families who have children with childhood cancer.
The Sunrise Optimist Club is an organization that volunteers to raise money for the youth of our community.
Club President Denise Davis talked about why they were called to help support the AdvoKATE Foundation.
"Yuma has no where for the children to go fro treatment, so they have to travel...so that's the housing costs, the gas costs, the food costs, and the foundation helps to support that," Davis explained.
