Firefighter Holding Fundraiser for Cancer Research

There's a food-filled event next week to help one woman meet her Susan G. Komen goal.

Hampton Firefighter Kate Meehan is participating in the Susan G. Komen for the Cure walk later this summer, and as part of her fundraising efforts for the cancer foundation Meehan will have a special event Monday at Margarita's on Route 1 in Portsmouth.

Meehan said 15 percent of the proceeds at the restaurant between 4 and 10 p.m. on Monday, May 21, will go toward the foundation.

Meehan is required to raise $2,300 before the 60-mile walk through Boston, which happens in July, and the fundraiser will help her reach that goal.
