“Not only is this a fun community event, it also raises money for a cause and organization that we believe in: the Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation, or MARF,” said Caitlin Lagemann of Gori Julian. “There are about 3,000 new cases of mesothelioma cancers diagnosed each year in the United States alone. Last year, we raised more than $20,000 for MARF.” At this year’s Oktoberfest the tradition continues with raffle tickets to win a trip for two to Germany available for $15. All proceeds from this year’s Oktoberfest will go towards mesothelioma treatment and research.
