MEMPHIS, TN (WMC) - October is breast cancer awareness month and our morning anchor Andrew Douglas is promoting awareness and raising funds through his pink tie campaign.

Andrew asks that you send him or d rop off a pink tie (as well as a small donation to American Cancer Society) this month at the WMC Action News 5 studios in Midtown.

He will wear the tie, say your name on the air, and send it back. At the end of the month, he will make a donation to breast cancer research that is happening right now in Memphis through the American Cancer Society on behalf everyone who loaned him a pink tie.

Last year, Andrew raised $500 to donate. He's hoping to top that number this year.

You can help raise breast cancer awareness and increase breast cancer research through American Cancer Society and Andrew's pink tie campaign. Fllow the campaign using the hashtag #andrewspinktie.
