The University of Toledo Medical Center physicians, nurses and other caregivers put on their pink gloves and danced in honor of patients and in support of a cure for breast cancer.

A special pre-launch screening of the video UTMC created as part of the 2012 Pink Glove Dance II Video Competition will take place 12:30 p.m. today (Friday, Oct. 12) in the hospital’s Four Seasons Bistro to kick off the campaign and encourage voting.

The top three videos submitted to the competition will win a donation to a breast cancer charity of their choice. Voting begins at 1 p.m. today at PinkGloveDance.com.

The UTMC Pink Gloves Dance Team was inspired to create the video in recognition of the hospital’s patients and physicians and to raise awareness about breast cancer in the northwest Ohio community.

To support the UTMC Pink Glove Dance Video, go to PinkGloveDance.com to vote between 1 p.m. Oct. 12 and midnight Oct. 26. The donation would benefit the Susan G. Komen Foundation of Northwest Ohio.
