SPRING VALLEY, WI – The Spring Valley High School Student Council hosted a Pink Out Week for students October 20-24 to raise awareness and funds for the Spring Valley Community Cancer Fund.  Through their fundraising efforts, the student council was able to donate $1,330 to help those in our community fighting cancer.

The week’s fundraising activities included Penny Wars, Caps for Cancer and the sale of limited-edition Pink Out shirts.  Students were also able to pay tribute to loved ones battling cancer on a tribute wall, showing our staff and students how directly cancer affects our community and loved ones.
