FOX 11's Amanda Salas fighting the fight against cancer
LOS ANGELES - Many of you know our Entertainment Reporter, Amanda Salas. She's been on Good Day LA and our evening news for more than two years. What you may not know is she's been facing a battle for her life, and she wanted to share her story — in her own words.
September is Lymphoma Awareness Month, and we're going to be raising awareness right alongside Amanda with important facts and information about Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
On Sunday, September 15, the Los Angeles Fire Department is hosting a pancake breakfast on behalf of Amanda to help her raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The event is being held between 9 a.m. and 12 p.m. at LAFD Fire Station 88, located at 5101 Sepulveda Boulevard in Sherman Oaks. They will also be selling t-shirts to help raise money. If you can’t make it to the pancake fundraiser you can also order a shirt by clicking here.
