Each year, basketball teams across the country raise money for the Kay Yow Cancer Fund by wearing pink and completing fundraisers from February 10- 20. This year, tie manufacturer, The Knot, is offering the "Play 4Kay" pink bow tie and will donate 100 percent of sales to the fund to help in the fight against breast cancer.

You can purchase the $35-dollar "Play 4Kay" pink bow tie here. The company will also accept payment from college athletic departments directly through PayPal or via check. Contact them at: theknotco @ gmail.com for more information.

The company is co-owned by Brian Gerrity, Assistant Athletic Director for External Relations at the University of Hartford and a contributor to Athletic Management.
