Tanger Factory Outlet Centers recently announced that the company raised a total of $17,518.33 in the Lakes Region as a result of the 26th annual Pink Campaign and TangerFIT 5K Run/Walk, to benefit patients receiving care at the Anderson Ganong Cancer Center at LRGHealthcare. The 2019 Pink Campaign was celebrated across 40 Tanger Outlet Centers in the United States and Canada. Beginning in September, customers were able to purchase a PinkCard to save 25% off on a single item at participating stores. Purchases of the unlimited savings card benefitted breast cancer programs in local communities, such as the Anderson Ganong Cancer Center at LRGHealthcare, as well as nationally through the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF), the nation’s highest-rated breast cancer organization. Additionally, the Tanger Outlets in Tilton held their 11th Annual TangerFIT 5K Run/Walk in September which contributed to this year’s total donation. “On behalf of our patients, providers and staff at LRGHealthcare I thank everyone at Tanger Outlets in Tilton, the Tanger Family, and the many community supporters who came out to support the Tanger 5K and Pink campaign this past fall,” said LRGHealthcare President and CEO Kevin W. Donovan. “It takes all of us working together to fight breast cancer, and the impact Tanger has had on our patients over the years is remarkable, we are honored to once again be named their local beneficiary.”
