About:
In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, cosmetology students at the Levittown School District’s Gerald R. Claps Career and Technical Center hosted their annual “Pink Nail for Hope” fundraiser on Oct. 16 and 17 and raised a total of $535 for the American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer of Long Island.
Members of the school community showed their support by stopping by the Levittown Memorial Education Center over the course of the two days to donate and get their nails polished pink in honor of breast cancer awareness. Students showcased their skills and creativity by designing the breast cancer ribbon and placing stickers on the nails.
