All fourteen Team Great Harvest members crossed the finish line last Sunday at the San Diego Rock-N-Roll Marathon to benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Raising over $71,000 the team was honored to be one of the top five corporate teams for fundraising nationwide.
Many thanks to all the bakery owners, customers, employees, vendors and friends who contributed to the cause. And, let’s add a loud “Woo Hoo!” for each and every team member that took on the double task of raising funds and crossing the finish line. With all of us working together, we’ve taken one more step towards curing cancer.
