Patriots Donate $20K To Providence Health Centers For Cancer Screening

FOXBOROUGH, MA — The New England Patriots Foundation is honoring National Cancer Survivor Month by offering aid to Providence Community Health Centers.

A grant of $20,000 was given to PCHC by the foundation, along with the American Cancer Society, which will be used toward expanding breast cancer screening and detection efforts, the team said.

The initiative is part of NFL Crucial Catch's "Intercept Cancer" campaign. A press conference was held June 30 to announce the grant, according to PCHC.

PCHC is the first-ever Rhode Island organization to receive this grant.
