Seeking Donations for Young Survival Coalition / DGN Bands Will Wear Pink on Friday

The DGN Trojan Marching Band will support Breast Cancer Awareness Month at their performance on Friday, October 7 by wearing pink gloves (instead of white) and affixing pink ribbons to uniforms.

Tuesday - Friday this week, during band classes, students will be given the opportunity to make a donation to support a prominent national Breast Cancer charity.  We are asking students (and their families) to consider making a cash donation as they are able.

The suggested donation range - per student - is $5-$10.  The first $2 of each donation will help offset the cost of the newly purchased pink gloves and pink ribbons that each marching band member will be issued for Friday's performance.  All remaining funds raised will be donated to the Young Survival Coalition.  You may read about the mission of this charity at:

https://www.youngsurvival.org/

Donations may be made, in class, either with cash, or a personal check made payable to 'Young Survival Coalition.'  Checks made directly to the charity will be forwarded with other monies raised from the DGN Bands.

Donating is not required of any student; all students will be given pink gloves and a pink ribbon to wear at Friday's performance.

Thank you for your consideration of this philanthropic endeavor.
