BHS Student Government Club Supports Mammogram Fund
Monday, April 8, 2013
Through funds raised by the Bremen High School Powder Puff football game, the school’s Student Government Club made a generous donation of $500 to Tanner Medical Foundation’s Mammogram Assistance Fund.
Each woman has a 1-in-8 chance of developing breast cancer, and mammograms are considered the best way to find the disease early. Tanner’s Mammogram Assistance Fund makes this essential screening possible for women who could not otherwise afford it.
“We are so proud to once again partner with the Bremen High School Student Government Club,” said Kathy Mathis, director of Tanner Medical Foundation. “We applaud Mrs. Pate and the entire faculty of Bremen High School for helping the next generation understand the importance of giving back to their community.”
