Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

Representatives from Presley’s Power hung a gold ribbon on the big oak tree outside the Courthouse in La Grange on Thursday, Sept. 2. Presley’s Power is a local non-profit that supports children battling cancer and their families. The group encourages everyone to “Go Gold” during September to raise awareness for childhood cancer. Last week, Fayette County Commissioners signed a proclamation designating September as Childhood Cancer Awareness Month in Fayette County.
