The Light for the Fight Cermeony (SAU Centennial Homecoming)



Manolia’s Southern Arkansas University recently kicked off the Centennial Homecoming. Homecoming began on Monday, October 5 with a pep rally commencing an eventful week. The festivities included football, mulegating, a concert, the showing of a drive-in film, and more.

On Monday, The SAU Rankin College of Business hosted the Third Annual Light for the Fight ceremony. It was located at the campus’ Business Building fountain, free and open to the public. The purple and white luminaries were sold for $5. Each luminary was representative of a loved one affected by cancer. Purple honored friends and family while white honored survivors and those currently battling cancer.

The luminaries are still on display and will remain so through October. All proceeds from the event went to the family of Anne Sands, a coach and assistant director of financial aid at SAU. Her daughter, Kaylynn Sands, 2, is in the treatment process for ganglioneuroblastoma.
