An annual event at a local school district will again raise funds for breast cancer research.
Students at the Mars Area School District will participate in the ‘Hats For Heroes’ fundraiser on Friday. Friday has also been designated as a district-wide “Pink Out”.
Students will have the chance to make a donation in exchange for the opportunity to wear a hat in school. Last year, the schools raised a combined total of nearly $7,000.
Anyone interested in making a donation can do so at the schools’ main offices or online. Proceeds benefit the Greater Pennsylvania Susan G. Komen for the Cure organization.
