about
Sam Houston State University is pleased to introduce the inaugural
Kats for the Cause initiative during the fall 2007 semester.
This cause will benefit breast cancer education and awareness.
Our mission is to create awareness, change attitudes, and commit
others to action.
Various student organizations, faculty and staff members from
the Sam Houston campus have organized a variety of activities
and ways to get involved in supporting these efforts. On Saturday,
October 6, 2007 we will host the inaugural Kats for the Cause
5k walk/run and Pink Out at the Sam Houston State football game
against Central Arkansas.
If you are interested in becoming involved with this initiative
or attending any events, please contact a committee member listed
on this page.
