Employees of Memorial Health System (MHS) in Abilene wore blue jeans at work for another “Jeans Day” fundraiser on Fridays throughout the month of August.

Employees make a donation of at least $5, and they are allowed to wear blue jeans at work. For August, a total donation of $920 was presented to Tori Murphy, organizer of Derrik’s Ride.

Derrik’s Ride is an annual event to help in the fight against childhood cancer, which features a poker run, dinner, auction, and more. This year’s event is in Old Abilene Town on Saturday, September 20th.
