Thanks to Jorge Cabrera, the "in" color at South High School this year is orange.

Since the 16-year-old sophomore was diagnosed in spring 2011 with leukemia, orange, which represents leukemia awareness, adorns more than 300 T-shirts sold in a fundraiser for the Cabrera family.

A second order of the shirts, which say "I wear orange for Jorge" on the back and "Project Diversity" on the front, is being placed Tuesday, said project co-sponsor and English as a Second Language instructor Lisa Quirke.
