PPAM Raises $3,500 To Aid Children with Cancer

Promotional Products Association of the Midwest (PPAM) held its First Annual President’s Charity Golf Tournament in July, raising $3,500 for the Kares 4 Kailie Foundation, a St. Louis-based organization that provides assistance to children and their families affected by cancer.

As part of her one-year tenure as PPAM president, Wendy Franklin of Franklin Promotional Group, St. Louis, chose to donate the funds to the charity because her 14-year-old friend, Chelsea Herbert, is battling leukemia, and the Kares 4 Kailie Foundation was established by the parents of Chelsea’s friend, Kailie Rhines, who passed away from cancer in 2004.
