"Pours for Pink" Fundraiser at the Burger Loft Thursday and Friday in New City

Make sure you stop in to support breast cancer research, in honor of a member of the eatery's family and all the others fighting the battle.

NEW CITY, NY — The Burger Loft is hosting a Drink Pink event Thursday and Friday with partial proceeds of all beer sales going to Breast Cancer Research at Memorial Sloan Kettering, in loving memory of Deborah Golemba Potenza, wife of owner John Potenza.

A percentage of the beer sales will go towards breast cancer research at Sloan Kettering where Deborah fought the majority of her battle.

At age 28 she was diagnosed with breast cancer and fought until the very end. John will forever be grateful for all that Sloan Kettering did to help his wife throughout her 8-year battle and hopes to get a big crowd in for the two day event starting Oct. 20, to help the breast cancer cause in honor of her strength and bravery.
