Pink

CFL PINK is back in 2012! The CFL and its member teams are committed to raising awareness and funds to tackle women's cancers and making a positive difference in communities across the country. CFL PINK is a national campaign that represents the regional efforts of our teams and our dedicated fans.

Inspired by the courageous women and their families touched by women's cancers, the CFL and its enthusiastic fans host events, raise money, and show their support by wearing PINK each October.
