Northview Public Schools planning for Black Out Pediatric Cancer event

Submitted by Anonymous on Tuesday, September 7th, 3:04 pm

Northview Public Schools is encouraging the community to participate in "Black Out Pediatric Cancer" day on October 8th.

The district's website describes the day as "a time when all of our students and community can come together to celebrate the health of our students and help those who are less fortunate and are experiencing trial in their life with Pediatric Cancer."

Northview public schools will be selling Black Out Cancer t-shirts to be worn at the high school football game that night, along with Blackout 2010 wristbands.

The varsity soccer team and varsity football team will also be auctioning off black jerseys to raise funds. All the money raised through the auction and the t-shirt and wristband sale will be donated to the DeVos Children's Hospital Pediatric Oncology Unit.
