HOLLAND, PA – May 30, 2017 – On Thursday, June 1st, the St. Katharine Drexel School Community will host a “Pink Out” & “Kickball for Kane” fundraiser on the school campus for their beloved 6th grade teacher who was recently diagnosed with an aggressive stage of breast cancer.

Students will show their support for Breast Cancer Awareness by enhancing their school uniform with all things pink on Thursday! At 10:00 AM, the entire SKD school community will gather in the parking lot for a community prayer service and immediately following will be a school wide Kickball tournament. Everyone is encouraged to “think pink” and make a donation to benefit Mrs. Kane and her family during their time of need. All are welcome to attend!

Saint Katharine Drexel Regional Catholic School prides itself on forming leaders through academic excellence, personal discipline and Christian service to one another and the community. The 2012-2013 school year marked a new beginning for the school. It celebrated a new name that honors a miracle that had its roots on the premises, and welcomed the arrival of new students from Assumption BVM Parish, who joined with students from St. Bede the Venerable Parish in Holland, St. Vincent de Paul Parish in Richboro, and surrounding parishes to create an exceptional Catholic elementary school built for the future.
