Scooters for Hooters is an all volunteer group dedicated to raising money to help buy mammograms for the uninsured and underinsured.

Recently Scooters for Hooters raised $490 benefitting St. Luke’s Mountain States Tumor Institute and its fund for Mammograms for Underserved Women.

More than 940 women have been assisted in receiving mammograms in the past year, including 40 from Elmore County.

St. Luke’s, the only Idaho-based non-profit health system, serves our communities from Eastern Oregon to South Central Idaho and is driven by the mission “To improve the health of people in our region.”

As a part of that mission, St. Luke’s Mountain States Tumor Institute Breast Care Services is committed to the women of Idaho and the fight against breast cancer. By screening for breast cancer, we can detect it early and give women more options for treatment as well as a great survival rate! We have several grant programs that can help low income women that are uninsured or underinsured get screening mammograms or help with diagnostic studies of the breast. If you would like more information to see if you qualify for one of our grants please call 208-381-2095 or visit
