Iowa State Troopers Association Raising Money For Breast Cancer Research

Northwest Iowa — October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the Iowa State Trooper’s Association has come up with a rather unique fundraising effort to raise money for cancer research.

Iowa State Patrol Trooper Kevin Krull says the State Troopers Association has redesigned the traditional Iowa State Patrol shoulder patch that troopers wear on their uniforms, and is offering the special design for sale to the public.

(As above) “The State Patrol patch is converted over into pink….pink and black. And what it is, we’re doing fundraising for breast cancer awareness. We’re going to take all the money raised through this campaign and we’re going to donate it to another organization that does a lot with breast cancer and cancer research and cancer stuff. We’re selling those (patches), we have them at the office, they’re ten dollars apiece, and you can also go on the (State Trooper’s Association) web page.”

There are actually two different designs, both with a pink and black color scheme. They’re available with a black background and pink lettering, or a pink background with black lettering. And both have the Breast Cancer Awareness ribbon emblazoned on the patch.

As Trooper Krull mentioned, the patches are ten dollars each and you may pick them up at the Iowa State Patrol Post 6 office just north of Spencer, or you can see and buy them at the Iowa State Troopers Association website.
