Debra Orr is a cancer survivor and owner and organizer of Furniture Villa's Second Annual Breast Cancer Fundraiser on Saturday, October 22 from 6 P.M. to 10 P.M.

Furniture Villa Owner/Organizer, Debra Orr.

 

She says the first event last year raised $18,000.

"I'm a two-time survivor. My mother had breast cancer and my son's mother-in-law had breast cancer. It's so prevalent in our family but it's also in our community."

She says the first fifty women will get a loot bag and adds the event is open to both men and women.

Orr says for fourty bucks it's a great night out and all for a good cause.

"Tanya Ryan and Lyndsay Butler are teaming up and they're both coming to entertain for us, there's food, prizes, entertainment and lots of raffle prizes."

There's even a bra decorating contest.

"All of the bras that people enter into the bra decorating contest we display them proudly and then we have an Auctioneer auction those bras off at the end of the evening and you get to take one home. Some bras last year were going for a thousand dollars." Orr said.

She says all proceeds from the event will go to support the Canadian Cancer Foundation in Western Canada.
