This October, the Plateau community is invited once again to take part in an uplifting evening of creativity, fun, sisterhood and fundraising.

The 5th Annual Bras for a Cause fundraising event takes place Thursday, Oct. 22 at The Claw of Enumclaw (1324 Roosevelt Ave. E., Enumclaw).

Members of the community are invited to view artfully decorated bras while enjoying light appetizers. Vote for your favorite bra with the purchase of a $1 People’s Choice ticket, and join in the fun of the raffle, photo booth and interactive history! Do it all while supporting breast cancer screening in our communities: Proceeds will assist with a screening mammogram for those in need at St. Elizabeth Hospital.

Tickets are $15 each ($20 at the door) and are available for purchase at Enumclaw Chamber of Commerce, Enumclaw Senior Center, Cornerstone Café at St. Elizabeth Hospital and select Enumclaw locations (call 1 (888) 825-3227 or visit chifranciscan.org/classesandevents to purchase tickets). Cash/check/credit card are welcome for purchasing items at the event.

There is no cost for those submitting decorated bras to be entered as part of the event’s festivities. Simply deliver your entry to the Enumclaw Senior Center (1350 Cole St., Enumclaw) before October 20, 2015.

Breast cancer affects one in eight women regardless of socio-economic status. A basic screening mammogram is the best defense against this disease where early detection could save a life.
