Jiffy Mart, a division of Tevis Oil, donated $3,500 to the Center for Breast Health to benefit breast cancer patients at Carroll Hospital on Dec. 17. Employees from Jiffy Mart locations throughout Carroll County presented a check to Brenda Frazier, director of development at the Carroll Hospital Foundation; and Dr. Dona Hobart, medical director of the Center for Breast Health at Carroll Hospital.
The money was raised in October during a month-long fundraiser held at all four Jiffy Mart locations in Finksburg, Hampstead and Westminster. In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the stores sold items such as pink pins, bracelets and magnets, and change collectors were placed on the counters for customers to donate their loose change.
