A 2015 UIndy grad is drawing attention with his campaign to provide support for breast cancer patients.
[1]Colin Bowles, who majored in Communication/Electronic Media [2], is a sportscaster at Lafayette’s WLFI-TV. In honor of his mother, who died of breast cancer in 2014, he has formed a team for next Saturday’s Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure and is building an organization called My Eyes Are Up Here [3].
The group will raise money for the Indiana Women in Need Foundation [4], which helps women and men with breast cancer by paying for important non-medical services, such as child care, home maintenance, meal preparation and fitness classes.
Read about him in the Indianapolis Star [5] and the Lafayette Journal & Courier [6], and learn more about the campaign at Bowles’ website [3].
