From the Organizer
The Interact Club at Parkersburg Catholic High School, led by junior classman Ian Haid invites you to join us in our effort to raise awareness for breast cancer. The money raised will go directly to WVU Medicine Camden Clark Foundation Pink Mammogram Fund. We ask area businesses, organizations, and schools to join us in this community wide effort to help women in our area get free mammograms. First line of defense in fighting breast cancer is early detection. Let's make an immense impact to fight cancer!
