‘Tough Enough to Wear Pink’ in South Dakota
tough enough

Employees in Rapid City, South Dakota, partnered with Monument Health's Tough Enough to Wear Pink campaign recently.

Employees sold and purchased 174 “Tough Enough to Wear Pink” T-shirts, raising $1,835 from employees and $1,740 from Black Hills Energy contributions. Employees also contributed $105 in cash. As a result, our Rapid City team was able to donate $3,680 to the Monument Health Cancer Care Institute (CCI).

Tough Enough to Wear Pink is a nationally recognized campaign designed to raise awareness and funding for breast cancer research. Your support and participation not only benefit CCI, but also serve as a thoughtful way to honor those members of our Black Hills area communities whose lives have been impacted by cancer.

Thanks to all who made this campaign a success!

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Follow us on FacebookInstagram, LinkedInTwitter, YouTube, and Pinterest for more!
