SUNSET PARK — More than 300 community members gathered to help fight breast cancer at the Park Asia restaurant this past Wednesday evening, opening their wallets a bit in the process, and raising nearly $7,000 for the cause.
The third annual Pink Ribbon Charity Gala — a fundraiser for breast cancer — was held in Park Asia’s main dining room, located at 6521 Eighth Avenue, coinciding with Breast Cancer Month.
All proceeds for the event will be going to the Maimonides Medical Center Breast Cancer Department.
