Hooters Raises Money for Breast Cancer Research
Hooters suffered a tremendous loss with the passing of 1998 Hooters Calendar Cover Girl, Manager, and Cancer Fighting Symbol Kelly Jo Dowd, who passed away at her home in Palm Harbor, Florida. Kelly Jo, who was one of the original Hooters Girls at the popular chains first location in Clearwater, Florida, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2002 and spent the last five years of her life battling this dreaded disease. Through the struggle, she was courageous and selfless, becoming an advocate for early detection, education and fundraising in the battle against breast cancer within the Hooters organization.
In 2006 Hooters partnered with the V Foundation for Cancer Research and established a $2 Million Breast Cancer Research Grant in Dowd’s name. The company also launched an awareness and early detection educational program using videos featuring Kelly Jo that has been viewed by thousands.
For the third consecutive year, Hooters Girls across the country have been raising money for the cause through local fundraising efforts including the sale of pink Hooters Girl uniform cutouts at the restaurants. A check will be presented to the V Foundation in Miami during the Hooters International Swimsuit Pageant on July 23rd to further fund the Kelly Jo Dowd Breast Cancer Research Grant.

Held Sunday, May 24, in the historic Village of Pinehurst, the event brought together more than 130 judged automobiles representing over 40 manufacturers, and from this judge’s point of view, it was a first-class field, a well-run operation, and a genuinely enjoyable day with owners who were proud to…
