South Charleston firefighters are dressing in pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

The crews are sporting pink t-shirts while on duty. Firefighters say wearing pink makes them stand out - making it easier to get the message to the community.

If you want a t-shirt, you can purchase one at the South Charleston Fire Department located on 4th Avenue. The t-shirts are $12 each and triple and four x sizes are $15.

All proceeds benefit the American Cancer Society.
