10 Minute Activities
Pink
Ribbons
Cost:
approximately $15-20, depending on number
Goal:
To raise breast cancer awareness through a Pink
Ribbon Campaign
Materials:
Pink Ribbons
Procedure:
For minimal cost, pink ribbons can either be made
or purchased and distributed to all educational
employees. Many schools have combined this activity
with a denim day (proceeds from which can pay
for the small cost associated with the ribbons)
or distribution of various cancer education materials.
Pass them out at staff meetings, in the teacher’s
lounge, and to anyone you see. Ask participants
wear them as a reminder to practice regular screening
utilization and monthly breast self-examination.
By the end of the day, have the school painted
pink!
