CHICAGO--Hu-Friedy was recently honored with the National Breast Cancer Network of Strength Race to Empower–Team Achievement Award.
Hu-Friedy was recognized for recruiting corporate teams in multiple markets across the country, alone raising more than $20,000 with 176 team members participating in six total markets--Atlanta, Chicago, New Haven, Sacramento, San Diego, and Washington, DC.
The award was presented at a reception at the Chicago Hilton Garden Inn by breast cancer survivor and the Network's CEO and Founder Margaret Kirk. The Network of Strength states that "the award was created to acknowledge and commend the tremendous amount of coordination and effort it requires to organize teams across the nation."
This year is a special year for Hu-Friedy and the National Breast Cancer Network of Strength (formally known as the Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization). It marks Hu-Friedy's 100th birthday and the Network's 30th anniversary.
Race teams formed under the Hu-Friedy name and included representation from the American Association of Women Dentists.
