The
International Rice Festival Association will be selling Pink
Breast Cancer Awareness T-Shirts this year and donating
$5.00 off every t-shirt sold to the Miles Perret Cancer
Center Services in Lafayette. This organization assists all cancer patients going through chemotherapy and is a local organization. The Acadia Parish Schools have agreed to send fliers home with every child to help us not only sell the pink t-shirt but our poster t-shirt as well. In the past several businesses and financial institutions have helped to sell our souvenirs and this year is no different. Hope that you are ready and willing to help. Unfortunately, we all know someone that has fought the battle and we know firsthand how the Miles Perret Center does not discriminate. |
