West Feliciana Hospital recognizes the importance of education and early prevention of breast cancer. Paint the Town Pink is a fantastic way for our whole community to come together for Breast Cancer support and education each year. 
Join West Feliciana Hospital’s annual breast cancer awareness campaign to raise money for Cancer Services of Baton Rouge, a nonprofit organization serving the emotional, financial, and physical needs of those affected by cancer. Cancer Services of Baton Rouge serves a 10-parish area that includes West and East Feliciana and Pointe Coupee.
Businesses and individuals are asked to decorate their homes or offices in pink, along with entering our competition for “Most Creative” and “Best Pink Decorations”. This is a great way to show community unity and support for this special cause.
There are many ways you can participate through the month of October. West Feliciana Hospital will be selling T-shirts and yard signs, along with hosting our traditional Paint Party, with all proceeds going to Cancer Services of Baton Rouge.
