WHY: Chances are you know someone who’s been impacted by breast cancer. BMW of Warwick chose to support a Rhode Island-based community charity and hopes to grow the event in 2017. For every BMW sale during the month of October, $50 was allocated to support Gloria Gemma and additionally, a pledge card was available during this time. “We are proud to have been chosen to partner with Gloria Gemma. We chose them because they are a respected local organization that provides direct support to our community. Within our dealership, we all know someone who is directly affected or indirectly affected with this disease. We want to be able to assist in this fight as much as we can for all mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, and families not just our own. We are very excited about our partnership with Gloria Gemma and we look forward to many more years of working with this wonderful group of people. Next year we will build on this year’s success and do our best to continue supporting Gloria Gemma as they continue to do what they do best; spread hope.” Ron Girouard.
