* What: Employees of Hamilton County Emergency Medical Services made a $5,755 donation to the MaryEllen Locher Breast Cancer Center at CHI Memorial. The donation was raised through the sale of pink shirts worn by HCEMS employees in October during their breast cancer awareness campaign and in memory of the late MaryEllen Locher, a local television personality who fought breast cancer until her death 11 years ago.
