WISCONSIN RAPIDS, WI (OnFocus) – Local cancer patients are being helped, thanks to the Immanuel Lutheran School 5th-8th grade volleyball players and their fans. The team’s 2023 Pink Game Night raised $780 for Aspirus Riverview Foundation’s Cancer Patient Fund.
The fundraiser included a t-shirt sale, dessert bake sale, and penny war. On Pink Game Night, pink carnations were presented to cancer patients and survivors, and the team honored one of the school’s teachers, who is a breast cancer survivor. The fundraiser taught the players about teambuilding, honoring loved ones, and giving back to the community.
