HAZLETON, Pa. — A fundraiser in Luzerne County went towards one woman's battle with leukemia.
Servers at Applebee's along Susquehanna Boulevard in West Hazleton donated all of their tips to 23-year-old Malena Gallucci, who is battling leukemia.
Malena worked at the same Applebee's in the past and is now pursuing a career in nursing.
I feel like working together, we are all pretty close, and Malena was always a team player, she did everything for anyone, would drop anything for everyone, and we really wanted to give back to her," said Natalie Perkowski, organizer
While the dine for a cause event is over, but her friends are still raising money for Malena.
