HISD police officers wear pink badges to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer
In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, many HISD Police officers are sporting pink police badges throughout the month of October to help raise awareness of the disease and raise funding for research.
Officers who contributed $20 or more are wearing special pink badges throughout the month, signifying their commitment to the cause. The money raised will go to the American Cancer Society to support patients fighting breast cancer and their families.
“The Pink Badge Program is a great way for our officers to show support for our community,” Asst. Police Chief Lucretia Rogers said. “I think it demonstrates our commitment to supporting families who are struggling with this serious disease.”
The Pink Badge Program is supported by various law enforcement agencies across the country. This is the second year for HISD’s police department to participate.
