“Digging” Pink!

IMG_5015 (1)Last week, our 7th and 8th grade volleyball teams at McDowell sponsored a PINK day in order to raise breast cancer awareness.  They asked that all students wear pink to show their support for breast cancer victims and donate money for breast cancer research. I’m proud of all my students for sporting their pink!  The volleyball teams collected over $500 to donate to the Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and I’m thankful for our volleyball girls for helping raise this awareness in our school.  Latest studies show that 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer.  Let’s hope that with continued research a cure will be found!
