Breast Cancer Awareness Month is the perfect time to do something good and this year, you can make a difference just by shopping. That sounds like a win-win for everyone.

One Day to Give Back

On Wednesday, October 22nd, from 8:00 AM to 11:00 PM, Boscov’s in Binghamton will host a special event called Friends Helping Friends. When you shop with a $5 pass, you’ll get 25% off the lowest sale prices in the store. Some exclusions may apply, but the savings are big and you'll be helping out a wonderful cause.

Where Your $5 Goes

Buy your pass through the YWCA of Binghamton, and 100% of the money will support ENCOREplus, a program that helps local women get breast and cervical cancer screenings. It also provides transportation and support so no one has to go through it alone.

How to Take Part

Buy a $5 Friends Helping Friends Pass from the YWCA. Shop at Boscov’s on October 22nd and show your pass at checkout. You will get 25% off while helping to provide lifesaving services for women in our community.
