Description

Pink is Just a Color Breast Cancer Walk 2nd Annual 5k and 1.5-mile fun run/ walk.

Let's Make Pink Just a Color's first annual event was on October 22, 2023. It raised over $38,000 with 400 participants. Since the event, chemo port access shirts have been provided, as well as drain bulb belt holders, drain bulb shower holders, and surgical bras to local breast cancer patients.

I hope to surpass the amount raised last year and to provide more to our breast cancer community in 2024 by providing meals and a weekend away to a few families to relax and be with their loved ones. I thank you for all your support in 2024, and I know the breast cancer community thanks you.

Founder of Let's Make Pink Just a Color 

Being diagnosed with stage three breast cancer is not the best news a young mom of three boys wants to hear in the middle of summer. On June 20, 2023 Brittany was diagnosed with stage three triple negative invasive carcinoma breast cancer. Without even hesitating, Brittany took her battle with cancer head-on and is on her way to kick its butt! She completed twenty-four weeks of chemotherapy on December 7, 2023, followed by a double mastectomy on January 3, 2024, reconstruction surgery on January 23, 2024, 6.5 weeks of radiation with a completion date of April 30, 2024, and then hopefully ending with 6 months of oral chemotherapy, starting the summer of 2024!
