Every year Lewis-Palmer High School partakes in a day dedicated to breast cancer. This year students will donate to the awareness and raise money for affected patients. Students dress up in pink to show their support and sorrow towards lost lives.

“I have a pink shirt, pants, and shoes that I can wear and I definitely will be because unfortunately my grandma had breast cancer, but her fight is over and she beat it,” sophomore Shelby Heins said.

Many people all over the country have been directly affected by breast cancer and never even knew they had it. That’s why more and more people are trying to bring awareness.

“I think that we should bring more attention to breast cancer because so many people are affected by it. I always donate because I lost my grandma to breast cancer,” sophomore Kaitlin Wada said.

This year Lewis-Palmer is fundraising by having students donate, then Jan, a school administrator, will go up in a cherry picker. It is an amusing and rousing way to get people to help out and raise money for a good cause.
