HOUSTON (CW39) — Little Woodrow’s locations across the Houston area are turning pink this October to raise money and awareness in the fight against breast cancer.
The neighborhood bar and restaurant chain is hosting its annual Pink Party fundraiser, with proceeds benefiting The Rose, a Houston-based nonprofit that provides breast cancer screening and diagnostic services to patients throughout Houston and Southeast Texas.
Donations are being accepted at Little Woodrow’s locations through Nov. 1, with the campaign culminating in Pink Week from Monday, Oct. 26, through Sunday, Nov. 1.
Throughout the week, participating locations will host pink-themed events, including raffles, trivia nights, bingo, turtle racing, a fun run and parties.
Guests can also support the fundraiser by purchasing a pink-and-black Little Woodrow’s hat or a light pink Texas House shirt for $22 each. A portion of merchandise sales will benefit The Rose.
