Support Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Pink Day in LA

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, when players are invited to wear pink in-game to show their support and raise awareness about breast cancer and other types of cancers. During the whole month, the pink dye vendor Rosa Salvitas will be in Lion’s Arch selling a special blend of pink dye!

But that’s not all&emdash;the annual Pink Day in LA event will take place once again in Guild Wars! The Gaming World Entertainment Network (GW-EN) and Gamers Giving Back are hosting this year’s Pink Day in LA event on October 20 from 12:00 - 6:00 PM (CDT) in Lion's Arch (International Districts 1, 2 and 3).
