Pressing the message that early detection of breast cancer is the best road to a cure; Mount Aloysius College helped the Chan Soon-Shiong Medical Center at Windber’s Joyce Murtha Breast Care Center spread the word. The Fourth Annual Mounties Pink Out volleyball game and other activities, including t-shirt sales, a basket party, concessions and raffles, raised $3,937.56 this year for the Joyce Murtha Breast Care Center (JMBCC) at Windber Medical Center.
The full-court press against breast cancer was a cooperative Mount Aloysius effort involving students, staff and faculty from several department including: Athletics, Controller, Human Resources, Surgical Technology, Science and Mathematics, and Student Activities Departments at the College.
