Proposal

For my graduation project I will be raising awareness in the community about breast cancer. I will be running Pink week throughout the school. Each day will have a different promotion for breast cancer. The items that will be sold are live strong type bracelets, silly bands, tattoos, ribbons, and shirts. All of these items will be sold to help get awareness out. I will be working with Mrs. Ward, and possibly student council, to get all of the products sold. I will use these products to spread awareness, some of the items come with cards, and we have cards we made, that give information out about the cancer.
 * Project**

To complete my project, I will be selling the products before school and during lunch. The plan for my project is that every day had a different product to be sold. So far the: Monday- ribbons, Tuesday- tattoos, Wednesday- bracelets(live strong and silly bands), Thursday- shirts, and Friday- Pink day. To get this information out I will hopefully be able to get in contact with the school morning announcements people and ask to get the days out so everyone knows.

For my graduation research project I will be researching breast cancer and the background information on it. I want to get information on symptoms and affects of the cancer, this way I can give out more valuable information to the public. With the information I collect i hope to be able to address the women, and men, of the society (and school) the risks and importance of breast cancer awareness.
 * Research**

What are the symptoms and affects of breast cancer? Throughout my project I hope to find the answer to this question and spread awareness of this disease. The only prior experience I have with this topic is knowing people who have fought, or are fighting, this disease. Also, I have been involved with other fundraisers and awareness projects that have gone on in the community in the pst. Knowing people who have suffered through this disease makes it that much more urgent to get the message out about this type of cancer. Those who will benefit fromt his project are all the men and women who hear what I have to say and know what they are up against. Hopefully people will understand the information given and how important it is to watch out for it.(please see Annotated Bibliography for 3 sources)
