SIOUX CENTER, IOWA – Hey, Dordt College students, faculty and staff!
The community has been given its chance to participate in the pink #DCsis2sis selfie challenge for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Now, it’s your chance.The campus challenge will work slightly different. You are asked to wear pink on campus for Pink Out Days on Oct. 12, 19 and 26. Then, post selfies of yourself wearing pink those days on Facebook – using the #DCsis2sis hashtag – to raise awareness about breast cancer.
By doing so, you will be entered into a drawing to win a gift basket of Dordt memorabilia from the Dordt College Bookstore. Check out how you can gain extra entries into the drawing in the expanded description of the guidelines in the flyer to the right or at this link.
The drawing will be conducted at intermission of Dordt’s varsity volleyball game against Dakota Wesleyan on Wednesday, Oct 26. That is Dordt volleyball’s official Pink Out evening conducted in partnership with Promise Community Health Center’s Sister to Sister/Hermana a Hermana program, which provides breast cancer awareness and education and free mammograms and other screenings to uninsured and under-insured women. You do not need to be present to win.
Selfies on final Oct. 26 Pink Out date must to be posted by 5 p.m.
Let’s see those selfies!
