Generous customers of the Perry Fareway store stepped up this year and donated $1012.72 during the weeklong roundup for the Relay for Life of Dallas County.
Fareway Manager Travis Landgrebe presented the donation check to the Perry Public Library’s Team Bookworm Captain Kathy Miller and Team Bookworm member Marlene Johnson Friday morning at Fareway.
The 2018 donation exceeded the 2017 gift of $688.57.
“We are thankful to the Perry Fareway and its generous customers for supporting the Relay for Life of Dallas County,” Miller said.
