All funds will go to the American Cancer Society in support of research, treatments, and mammograms and to ultimately find a cure for breast cancer. Chair massages will serve as a source of relaxation as patrons are made aware of the benefits and importance of regular distressing techniques.
This event will be Saturday, September 26, 2015, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. EST at Centura College in Newport News, Virginia.
Local CMTs will provide 15-minute chair massages for $10 and the student therapist will provide 10-minute chair massage for $5 to raise money for breast cancer. Additionally, each therapist was asked to create a gift basket or item from their company to be gifted away.
Alpha Beta Zeta Chapter has received outstanding results from local businesses that have also donated items to be gifted away. At least 30 CMTs have been requested but more are welcome and appreciated. In the event of inclement weather, this event will be held inside Centura College in Newport News which is a donated location. Centura College will also be providing other activities for the family, come out and enjoy the day!
The Alpha Beta Zeta Chapter of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority looks forward to hosting this benefit and to keeping this as an annual project for years to come. All attendees and interested parties are also invited to attend the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk at 10 a.m. EST on October 11, 2015, at Christopher Newport University in Newport News, Virginia.
