The Hormel Institute’s Director Public Relations and Development Gail Dennison, from left, and prostate cancer section leader Dr. Mohammad Saleem Bhat accept a $1,316 donation last week from Austin Public Schools’ Executive Director of Educational Services John Alberts and Superintendent David Krenz. The funds – which will fully support cancer research – were raised by Austin Public Schools administrators as part of their third annual “Movember” fundraising effort, part of an international movement every November to raise awareness and funds for men’s health programs. Since 2012, the Austin Public Schools administrators have raised more than $3,700 overall for the Institute’s cancer research. Photo provided
