On November 3, Bomgaars held a Ladies Night of Festive Fun & Fall Shopping! Bomgaars joined with local Cancer Centers / Hospitals / Ladies Organizations to raise awareness of women's health and wellness programs available to them. Bomgaars passed along a 20% discount for the ladies in attendance from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. A portion of the evening's total sales was pledged back into the community to help local agencies.

'We had a great response and are proud to announce the 2024 donation for all 181 participating locations was $150,604.11,' Bomgaars stated in their press release.

Wagner Community Memorial Hospital-Avera is very thankful for the funding toward cancer care in the community. The hospital plans to use the funds to put together care bags for newly diagnosed cancer patients in the community. Included in the bag will be helpful items as they start their cancer journey, such as a soft pillowcase for comfort during hair loss, lozenges/gum to alleviate dry mouth, a lint roller, seatbelt cushion, lip balm, lotion, hand sanitizer, and more. The bag will also include a journal to keep track of appointments, doodle, and journal their cancer journey.

Bomgaars and WCMH-A wish to thank the community for their support of this night.
