The Lombard Fire Department and Lombard Firefighters Union 3009 are hosting their 11th annual pink t-shirt fundraiser to raise funds for Bhorade Cancer Care Center at Good Samaritan Hospital. 

Shirts will be available for purchase on Saturday, September 28, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Babcock’s Grove House, located at 101 W Saint Charles Rd in Lombard. Each shirt is priced at $20, and all proceeds will be directed toward supporting cancer patients at the Bhorade Cancer Care Center. 

Throughout the month of October, Lombard Firefighters and Paramedics will have the option to wear their pink t-shirts in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

In 2023, the Lombard Fire Department achieved great success by raising $4,300 through the pink t-shirt fundraiser. Since its inception in 2014, this initiative has contributed a total of $29,850 to Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital, strengthening its work in the fight against cancer.
