VYS Give Cancer the Boot - Nov 2014
Press Release

VIENNA, VA – November 11, 2014 – Vienna Youth Soccer’s (VYS) fields were a sea of pink in October as players and their families participated in the third annual ”GIVE CANCER THE BOOT” campaign by wearing pink during games and practices.
VYS players, coaches and fans were been asked to wear pink to raise awareness on the risks of breast cancer and benefits of early detection. Players and their families could be seen all over Vienna and surrounding fields sporting their "Give Cancer the Boot" t-shirts and pink gear. Boys, girls, men and women participated - showing that pink has truly become a statement of support.
Over the past three years, VYS’ Give Cancer the Boot campaign has donated over $3700 to Life with Cancer a local, community-funded organization whose mission is to enhance the quality of life of those affected by cancer by providing information, education and support. This year’s donation included profits from VYS’ specially-designed shirts and a donation from the U14B Raptors Academy which donated a portion of its fundraising efforts from its Raptor Tag Booster Drive.
According to Faith Boettger, Give Cancer the Boot Chair, "Give Cancer the Boot gives our players and their families a wonderful opportunity to actively participate in breast cancer awareness month and make a difference all year long through our partnership with Life with Cancer."
