 Dr.
Janet Hoke, a two year breast cancer
survivor and a horse breeder, issued a challenge
with the sale of her 2007 yearlings. She pledged
10% of the amount to the Komen Lexington
Affiliate if her horses brought $500,000 or
more.Her horses were sold during the
Keeneland Fall Yearling Sale and the Maryland
Mid-Atlantic Sale.
Dr. Hoke's horses indeed
exceeded the $500,000 total and she will be
making a donation in excess of $55,600. This
donation is the largest single donation in the
history of the Lexington Affiliate.
We thank Dr. Hoke for her
generosity, as well as all the buyers for their
support. It's particularly gratifying for a
breast cancer survivor to want to "give back" in
this incredible way.
