MARQUETTE -- Panara Imports in Marquette is helping out the cause for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. They've created pink pumpkins they're calling Pinkins. They're available for a suggested donation of ten dollars.

They created the idea to help a cause that's important to them.

"Doing the Pinkins was just a way to try to help and support a local breast cancer awareness program," said Leanne Larsson, owner of Panara. "One hundred percent of the donation is being given to the local breast cancer awareness program, and if it goes over big, we'll buy more pumpkins and sell more."

Larsson also said she has plenty of paint if they need to make more.

They're available at Panara on Washington Street in Marquette during normal business hours.
