Division 2 of the Ancient Order of Hibernians will be hosting its annual Breast Cancer Fundraiser on Saturday, October 11, 2025, at the Irish Cultural Center in Babylon Village. This event supports two vital community organizations - the Babylon Breast Cancer Coalition and the West Islip Breast Cancer Coalition - which provide direct assistance to local individuals and families affected by this devastating
