 Sam Sleight (right) presents a check for $400 to Miles of Hope Executive Director Pari Forood Samantha Sleight, a high school senior at Arlington High School, decided to do something good for an organization she believes in. She asked her bosses at Adams Fairacre Farms where she works as a cashier when she is not going to school, if she could have a bake sale one Saturday to raise money for the Miles of Hope Breast Cancer Foundation. She then asked ‘everyone she knew including her mother, grandmothers and all aunts and cousins, to bake something for the sale’. “We are overwhelmed by the support we receive from every member of our community,” explained Pari Forood, ED of Miles of Hope. “From Martial Arts Centers in Florida, NY to Sam and her family and friends, to Zumbathon and Yoga Instructors — all have embraced the idea of raising money for Miles of Hope because they are able to see the results of their labors.” “All money raised in the Hudson Valley is then granted here for those affected by breast cancer,” she said.
