Pink Lancaster fundraiser supports Barshinger Cancer Institute, Advantage Lancaster programming

Advantage Lancaster, which provides opportunities for educational experiences, activities, and community service projects throughout the school year and summer months, is raising money for cancer awareness this October.

The Pink Lancaster Fundraiser supports families with loved ones battling cancer. In honor of Ruth Thomas, “a wonderful mother, daughter, sister, mother-in-law, and child of God” who lost her battle with cancer, this year’s Pink Lancaster will contribute to the work of the Ann B. Barshinger Cancer Institute as well as Advantage Lancaster programming. Since 2011, Advantage Lancaster has donated more than $30,000 to organizations including the American Cancer Society and the Healing Journey Foundation, and the fight against childhood cancer.
