 I want to welcome everybody here today for this occasion. I'm certain we're glad to be here after raising money for the campaign on breast cancer along with the FATS Cafe. Today we have firefighters, we have part of my command staff, public education officer here. And we just, we just delighted to be here today. We have engine 14 and 33. They took part in this fund raising. We were here for two days raising funds. The campaign actually went about four days. But we have firefighters here for two days, actually busing tables, serving food. Also, we had our pink helmet campaign collected tips from folks coming in the, I harassed a lot of people coming in inside the cafe. So with that being said, we're going to be presenting a check today to the mayor for a little over $1,300. But at this time, I'd like to introduce Ms. Coker, who actually, this was her brain child working along with our public education officer, Benjamin Leverett. So we just want to introduce her at this time. Thank you very much. My name is T. Coker. I'm the general manager here at the Fats Cafe on Forest Drive. And my dad was a firefighter for 35 years. And so I'm firefighting something that's very special to our family. So when we were looking to do fundraising opportunities, Fats was really huge on that. And they said, go out, connect with the community. So the best way for me to connect was to find someone that I knew. I happened to meet Chief Jenkins on his birthday. He came to Fats, luckily for us. And kind of kept his number, stayed in touch, and called him about the idea of doing what we call a spirit night slash fundraising opportunity. His first answer was absolutely. And he gave me Benji's number. So anytime you get that kind of feedback from anybody, especially someone as busy as you folks are, that's a huge thing for us. So Benji and I coordinated over a couple plates of lasagna, I believe, and kind of worked out some details. Decided to do two different campaign nights. Or actually, I guess it was four nights, but two different weekends. We did one of them in August and one in September. And we got really good results. We were very happy with it. If we'd had maybe three or four more months to plan, it probably would have been a little bit bigger, but we both learned from it. And I'm really happy with the results. Our company pretty much gives back as much as we can. So we were very happy to do it and loved having the guys here. And really for us, it's been a great opportunity. They've come out and seen us a couple of times for some false alarms, as well as just stopping by the station and stuff like that. So just very excited and happy to be a part of it and appreciate all the opportunity to kind of participate in that and to give back as far as raising money for cancer and your campaign and your initiatives. That's fair. I have the opportunity to get around the country sometimes around the world, telling people about what makes this city great. We're state capitol. Victory starts here at Fort Jackson. We train a majority of the soldiers for the Army. Talk sometimes about game cock football, not a lot this year. About historically black colleges. This is what makes this place special, but I tell people what really makes Columbia specials when you leave state capitol, when you get off post, when you leave campus. So Williams, Bryce, and it's the people that make Columbia very special. In this city, you still find men who open doors for ladies. You still find people who pull over for funerals. You tell them you can still find sweet tea in restaurants. And you find folks who know the two most powerful words in the English language and those who just thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You find folks who are incredibly gracious and understand that if in fact we are to be a great city, it happens when people come together. When incredible and amazing public service like these gentlemen behind me who literally put their lives on line every single day, don't think of robbery, to rally behind their chief in leadership to do something good for this community. And you find business leaders who are willing to sacrifice profit and ask their customers to chip in a little bit more to take care of some men suffer from breast cancers. Well, but primarily women, the incredible women who service the backbone of our families every single day. Breast cancer is affected, I'm sure, every family represented in this room. And the dedication of the people at the City of Columbia, the people, our staff working closely with Prisma Health and working with bosom buddies over the last several decades long before I was mayor to make sure that we have the resources to not only help in the fight against breast cancer, but also to make sure that as so many of our incredibly strong survivors keep fighting that they have the resources to deal with some of their post-mysectomy needs through bosom buddies. It is, I believe, the truest way that we can articulate that we are a community, that we're one community, and show that kind of love that makes a place special. So I'm honored to be here on behalf of the people of Columbia that I've represented for the last nine years. Thankful to Chief Jenkins, my dear friend, and this incredible leadership team at the Columbia Ridsome Fire Department. And thank you, thank you. FATS has been an institution here in Columbia for many years. And again, everyone doesn't do this. Everyone doesn't do this. So I think it's so important to say thank you to you and your team here. And we look forward to continuing to support you all, making sure that you all did the great things that we know you have in store for you. But it was important to just be here and say thanks. God bless you. And let's continue to pray over these incredible women and men who are still fighting the fight against breast cancer and continually praying for the families of those who've gone on the glory. Thank you. All right.
