Shade High School hosted a Pink for a Purpose Volleyball game that raised $1,614 for the JMBCC. Every year this project is coordinated by a junior student. This year’s student is Katie Cook.
Their generous support helps fund Pink Ribbon Care, a program that provides assistance for patients who are unable to pay for breast-related health services – including mammograms, follow-up diagnostic services, and genetic counseling.
