Russell George, AM for Montgomeryshire has joined the fight against breast cancer by taking part in Breast Cancer Campaign’s biggest (and pinkest) fundraiser, wear it pink day.
Over the last 10 years wear it pink has raised a staggering £23 million and on Friday 25 October 2013 people will come together in schools, colleges and businesses across Wales to raise vital funds for Breast Cancer Campaign’s lifesaving research.
Russell George AM says:
“Every year in Wales around 2,500 women are diagnosed with breast cancer, along with around 13 men. Sadly, around 615 women die from the disease each year in Wales.
“This is why we need to support Breast Cancer Campaign’s fundraising efforts so they can continue to fund research which will one day lead to a cure.
So join me, wear something pink and donate £2, it’s really as simple as that.”
Breast Cancer Campaign vitally needs the money raised from wear it pink for its researchers to have the best possible chance to find the cure.
