Every year El Reno High School conducts a fundraiser called Pink Week.
The school selects a family in which one of the members has breast cancer and raises money for them.
This year the Emily Whitney family was selected. A total of $7,000 was raised for the Whitney family.
The money was raised by student council members selling Pink Week passes.
The pass allowed students to get out of class to participate in various activities including a lip sync battle, a powder-puff tournament and several other activities.
Delta Dental of Oklahoma and the Delta Dental of Oklahoma Foundation awarded a $2,000 scholarship to Kendall Schnoebelen.

“Supporting the education of future dental professionals is vital to our organization’s not-for-profit mission to improve access to dental care in our state,” said John Gladden, president and CEO of Delta Dental of Oklahoma.
