BCRC “In the Pink” Fashion Show and Silent Auction Set to Raise Funds and Lift Spirits
Posted on 18. Sep, 2009 by PNN Editor in Events, Health, News
On Friday evening from 6-9pm on October 2nd 2009 the Princeton YWCA Breast Cancer Resource Center (BCRC), Kara Stephenson, Director (pictured above), will host the 5th Annual “In the Pink” Fashion Show and Silent Auction at the Westin Hotel in the Princeton Forrestal Village. This annual event is an inspirational celebration of the strength, beauty and spirit of breast cancer survivors, and the courage and compassion of their support network. Stunning fall fashions from local retailers and specialty designers will be modeled by breast cancer survivors together with their husbands, children, friends, doctors, and nurses – a moving reminder of the unified team that supports each woman as she battles this disease.
“In the Pink” is BCRC’s signature awareness and fund raising event. Held for the first time in 2005, “In the Pink” has raised over $80,000, and has become the must-attend event of Breast Cancer Awareness Month in Central New Jersey. 100% of the proceeds from “In the Pink” benefit BCRC. Your participation and generous contributions will help raise crucial funds to support free programs and services for breast cancer patients and survivors including support groups, a peer support network, a wig & prosthesis bank, teleconferences and guest lectures, a resource library, wellness classes, and community outreach activities.
