What do NFL players, Major League Baseball players and a group of boys at Holland Elementary School have in common? They are "real men" who wear pink to show their support for the fight against breast cancer.
As part of their mini Relay for Life, Holland sells T-shirts to help raise money for Taylor's Relay For Life. Two years ago, fourth-grade teacher Mr. Stewart asked the boys in his class if they would purchase pink shirts as a way to show support for the women's fight against breast cancer.
Several brave boys joined Mr. Stewart in the "Real Men Wear Pink" club. This year the group doubled in size and expanded to boys in other classrooms.
The boys who wear their pink shirts feel very strongly about their desire to show support for the women in their lives.
Nathan Gervasi wear his pink shirt "to support people who have cancer, have passed away, and who have survived cancer."
Antonio Perales and Jack Mount wear their shirts to honor women in their lives who have beaten breast cancer.
