About:
Each year, Clinton Athletics and Clinton Student Council collaborate to launch the Gaels Give initiative during Fall Pink Nights.
October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and they have a series of Pink-themed events lined up, including Girls and Boys Soccer, Field Hockey, and Football. A generous 60% of all proceeds from their store will be donated to Pink Revolution of NH, an organization dedicated to uniting individuals in the mission to improve the treatment experience for cancer patients of all types by providing chemotherapy care packages and financial assistance.
In addition to this, the Clinton Booster Athletic Club sponsors pink alternative game jerseys for their matches to raise awareness. Furthermore, parents and student athletes contribute by organizing a pink dye shirt sale and a bake sale to generate additional funds for Pink Revolution.
