'Big Pink Blast' coming to Libby on Friday

The Paint It Pink fundraiser, organized by St. John’s Lutheran Hospital and Glacier Bank, will celebrate with its “Big Pink Blast” at 10 a.m., on Friday, Oct. 29 in front of the hospital.

Those who want to show their support in the fight against breast cancer are invited to attend.

The Paint It Pink program provides mammograms to the uninsured or underinsured women of south Lincoln County. The dollars are raised and distributed locally. St. John’s and Northwest Imaging discount the mammograms so more individuals can benefit.

Over the past two years, 61 women have received mammograms through the program.

In case of rain, the celebration will be moved into the St. John’s Conference Center.
