Dozens of news anchors from the D.C. area teamed up once again in the fight against breast cancer.
The sixth annual Newsbabes Bash for Breast Cancer Wednesday raised thousands of dollars for Survivors Offering Support (SOS), a program at Georgetown and other hospitals.
SOS pairs women who have been recently diagnosed with trained volunteers who have survived the battle.
News4's own Eun Yang, Angie Goff and Dianna Russini were among the hosts, as are anchors from Bloomberg, CNN, WUSA9, Fox5 and WJLA.

In addition, the Newsmen in Pink, a collective of male anchors from each station, also attended.
