With the help of Chase Elliot, the Give a Hoot fundraising platform has raised over
$6.1 million for breast cancer research. The campaign started in honor of the late Kelly
Jo Down an original Hooters calendar girl in 1995. She passed away after a five year
battle with breast cancer in 2007, but during her fight she became an advocate to
hooters girls all over the country about early detection and preventative measures.
