Bexar County Tax Assessor-Collector Albert Uresti stood before Bexar County Citizens, Tax Assessor-Collector Employees, County Departments, and County and City Elected Officials this week for flag raising ceremonies of the Courage Flag in Honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
“We are proud to once again lead the charge against breast cancer by kicking-off a whole month of events tailored to raise awareness about the importance of early detection. We stand together with our citizens, co-workers, mothers, daughters, sisters, and spouses that have been affected,” said Albert Uresti, Bexar County Tax Assessor-Collector.
The Pink Courage Flag will be displayed at all four Tax Office locations for the month of October as a reminder to have an exam done, to support those fighting cancer, and to encourage those searching for a cure.
“I look forward to the day when there is a cure for all cancers, and breast cancer will no longer threaten the lives of so many women. Until that day, we are here to make sure that no one battles alone,” said Albert Uresti.
