Keeping with a tradition approaching two decades, Marquette is primed to observe its annual Denim Day next Friday, October 22nd.
Students and staff are encouraged to "go casual" and don jeans, pink apparel, or a special-made pink tie-dye Blazers shirt for a minimum donation of $5.00. Student donations made on Denim Day should be turned into that student's homeroom teacher. All other donations should be delivered to the main office.
The school has set a fundraising goal of $1,250 to donate to the American Cancer Society to go toward programs and services that assist breast cancer patients and their families.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of Lee National Denim Day in the United States. Breast cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer death among women, with approximately 270,000 expected to be diagnosed in 2021.
Marquette is proud to announce its aforementioned pre-order pink tie-dye shirts sold out. Additionally, Marquette Volleyball's "Dig Pink" Night back on Wednesday, October 6th raised over $350.
We encourage every student to participate in helping us reach our goal of making breast cancer history.
