Blue Out Movement Comes to $25,000 Fruition

A small idea from two graduate students at Penn State spread like wildfire to over 100,000 people to help spread awareness about child abuse, and what can be done to help.

McLanahan's presented a check from the money raised from the shirts, totaling an impressive $25,000.
