Pink Out: Stuart raises nearly $1,000 for cancer research

Annual school fundraising event included tennis and field hockey games for Play4theCure

On Friday, October 5, Stuart Country Day School, an all-girls PS-12 school in Princeton, NJ, raised nearly $1,000 in support of the National Foundation for Cancer Research's Play4TheCure® program which raises money for cancer research through competitive sports at high school, middle school and recreational levels. This annual all-school fundraising event known as Pink Out is held during Breast Cancer Awareness month and involved a week of opportunities to raise money including a silent auction and bake sale with items donated by Upper and Middle School athletes. The entire community dressed in pink on Friday and came out to support the varsity field hockey and tennis teams who hosted Play4TheCure® games at home.
