Spread the word!
The Cancer Care Committee of the Campbell County Healthcare Foundation needs your help to Paint Gillette Pink for the month of October (aka Breast Cancer Awareness Month). All the funds raised will be donated to local patients and families who are fighting cancer. For those who don't know, the committee considers applications and grants up to $5,000 each month, giving out over $100,000 since 2013.
You can help “Paint Gillette Pink” by purchasing a window or car decal, or yard sign showing your support. Visit the Paint Gillette Pink Facebook page to order “Paint Gillette Pink” items, www.facebook.com/Paintgillettepink/.
Patronize the The Prime Rib Restaurant and Wine Cellar, Old Chicago Gillette, or Buffalo Wild Wings and ‘round up’ your bill for donation to the Cancer Care Committee.
Purchase pink athletic gear at Universal Athletic Gillette or put a donation in the pink mason jar at many local businesses.
The Coffee Shoppe at CCMH will also have a pink donation jar, so you can put the change from your cup of coffee to work to help others; or look for Paint Gillette Pink donation jars at gas stations and other businesses around town.
The first 700 fans at the October 21 Campbell County High School Camel football game will receive a pink rally towel, sponsored by CCH. The Camel players will be decked out in pink socks to show their support.
And, join us for a PINK Out Day on Friday, October 28 to support efforts to end breast cancer forever!
