October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
In honor of the beloved Assumption teacher Marnelle Ducey, we do a variety of activities, awareness and fundraising over the course of the month.
Mrs. Ducey's husband Dennis Ducey has continued his wife's legacy with the Marnelle Ducey Scholarships awarded to Assumption students each year who exemplify Mrs. Ducey's character and love of learning.
Events include free dress Pink & Denim theme days during the month of October for a $5.00 Donation per free dress per student,
Special Breast Cancer Awareness Goodies available at the Festival this year, and of course, Assumption's official team, "Team Marnelle" in honor of Marnelle Ducey at the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk, Sunday, October 19th 8am to 11am a Thrive City (new location) in San Francisco.
More information will follow for this special theme dress days and the walk.
