Pink Lancaster: Order your shirts to support the fight against breast cancer!

It’s that time of year again for Pink Lancaster.  Pink Lancaster began in 2011 by Advantage Lancaster with a heartfelt mission: to uplift and support individuals and families impacted by cancer right here in Lancaster County. What started as a local act of compassion has grown into a powerful community movement that brings hope, honors loved ones and provides real assistance to those in need.  Thanks to the generosity of supporters over the years, Advantage Lancaster has raised over $60,000 to help families facing the emotional and financial challenges that come with a cancer diagnosis. And we’re not stopping now.  

Pink Lancaster 2025 is officially underway, and the fundraiser will take place throughout the month of October. This year, our goal is to sell 1,000 shirts to continue providing vital support to those fighting cancer. Shirts are available right now, so don’t wait!

Shirt Prices:
  • $20 for sizes YS–XL
  • $25 for sizes 2XL and up

Wear your Pink Lancaster shirt throughout your communities in October, especially on October 29th, which is officially recognized as Pink Lancaster Day. If you can, snap a photo in your shirt and tag the Advantage Lancaster Facebook page to help spread awareness. Every photo, every share, and every kind gesture truly matters.  

This campaign is dedicated in memory of Ruth Thomas, Mr. Bair’s mother-in-law, a beloved wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, and community member. Ruth faced life’s storms with grace, courage, and love, and her legacy continues through this effort in her honor and in honor of so many others.

How to Order:

  • Each participating school will have a contact person who will collect orders and payments. Those orders will be sent to Mr. Bair and he will drop shirts off at the end of a school day.
  • If your school does not have a designated contact, you can order directly through Mr. Bair at tlbair@sdlancaster.org
