(EMAILWIRE.COM, June 17, 2009 ) Three Triangle based companies recently came together to help raise money for breast cancer research: A Sweet Reminder, PAW and Smithfield’s Chicken N Bar-B-Q. The three companies fielded the Cookies For The Cure race team at the 2009 Komen NC Triangle Race for the Cure on June 13th. The team raised thousands of dollars for the Susan G Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, helping the Triangle affiliate reach their two million dollar goal.

“We were honored to be a part of the race team,” said Richard Averitte, Marketing Director for Smithfield’s Chicken N Bar-B-Q. “We are always willing to help our neighbors in the business community with such an important cause,” he added.

The Komen NC Triangle Affiliate is dedicated to saving lives and ending breast cancer forever. Since the first Race for the Cure in 1997, volunteers in thirteen counties have worked to raise millions of dollars to further this cause by empowering people, ensuring quality of care for all and energizing science to find the cures.

A Sweet Reminder specializes in delivering a delicious variety of fresh-baked gourmet cookies, packed with a personalized note in your choice of colorful boxes or decorative tins, which can be customized with a company’s logo for employee or client appreciation.
