Team Bright Pink welcomes athletes of all levels from around the country who want to live brightly, set goals and improve their fitness while helping raise important funds to support Bright Pink’s efforts to enlighten and empower young women to take control of their breast and ovarian health.
Through your fundraising efforts as a member of TEAM BRIGHT PINK, we are able to provide life-saving educational Breast/Ovarian Health 101 Educational Workshops to young women nationwide. These workshops arm young women with the tools and resources needed to develop a comprehensive breast/ovarian cancer early detection and prevention strategy. Additionally, funds raised by athletes participating on TEAM BRIGHT PINK allow us to distribute the engaging and action-provoking educational booklets in our Little Bright Book Educational Booklet Series. Without your support, we are unable to realize our mission of educating thousands of young women nationwide to be proactive advocates for their breast and ovarian health.
