To honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Notre Dame's middle division held a “Pink Out” today, Thursday, October 22. Students and staff wore pink shirts, and pink ribbons were handed out to everyone who entered the school.

"Students were invited to honor a survivor or remember a loved one by tracing their hands and writing the name of the family member or friend on a poster," said Brenda Kambakhsh, the middle division's International Baccalaureate coordinator.

Donations totaling more than $600 were received for The Pink Fund, a non-profit organization providing up to 90 days of non-medical assistance to breast cancer patients in need during active treatment. For more information see www.thepinkfund.org.
