Dark Age Tattoo and Restorative Tattoo Art donate all profits raised from $50 Tattoo Day to Northwest Hope and Healing.

SEATTLE — This Saturday, Dark Age Tattoo and Restorative Tattoo Arts will host their annual $50 Tattoo Day--a fundraiser for women battling breast or gynecologic cancer. The event is widely attended from open to close, keeping the tattoo artists busy all day.

"Everybody here was on board with doing a benefit, with helping out as best we can with the skills we have," said Eric Eye, founder of Restorative Tattoo Arts. "Even some artists that couldn't make it in today donated some of their art for us to tattoo as well."

Last year's fundraiser raised around $6,075.

"It's breast cancer awareness month, and this is our way of bringing attention," Eye said.

All profits from this event go directly to women in the community through Northwest Hope and Healing. The nonprofit's financial grants pay for necessities such as food, utilities and childcare so that women can focus on healing.

This year's $50 Tattoo Day is on Saturday, October 5th from 12:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Dark Age Tattoo.
