Athletes, fans, and community members are encouraged to “Team Up Against Cancer” in southwest Michigan. The annual event is a community fundraiser dedicated to help those fighting cancer, provide information to increase awareness and prevention of cancer, and celebrate cancer survivors.

One of the most important ways to support “Team Up Against Cancer” is by purchasing a t-shirt(s) available at this on-line store. 100% of the proceeds will go to assist local cancer patients and will be distributed to Berrien County Cancer Service and the Marie Yeager Cancer Center. The purchase of a t-shirt will also admit the wearer into all high school sporting events at St. Joseph High School during the week of September 16 to September 21.

The TUAC main event will be held on Friday, September 20 during the St. Joseph High School varsity football game at Dickinson Stadium vs. the Lakeshore Lancers. Gates will open at 5:00 p.m. with local vendors offering a variety of pre-game food and beverages with 25 percent of the sales to benefit area cancer support organizations - a great way to tailgate. A pre-game survivor walk will be celebrated and, after the game, a memory ribbon will be formed on the field with the SJHS Marching Band.

There will be two distributions - the first ending July 19th; the second distribution will end August 30th. All orders are delivered to the event organizers, and in turn, they will deliver your apparel directly to you.

If you are a St. Joseph Public School employee, please indicate what building you work at and delivery will be made to your mailbox.
