About Us
Dear Play for P.I.N.K. supporters,
The commitment and creativity of our volunteers across the country continues to amaze me. Since 1996, we have raised $15.75 million for breast cancer research together - one creative event at a time - $3,000,000 was raised in 2008 alone. These include golf and tennis tournaments, equestrian events, card games, knitting circles, even spa days! We are now in 26 states.
We encourage you to join our large grassroots network of devoted women, men, young adults, teens, and kids organizing P.I.N.K. fundraisers around the country. You will be furnished with all the materials needed to run a successful event - everything from the tees and markers for a golf tournament to a wonderful Estée Lauder product for the gift bag, even the bag itself! Since you are volunteering your precious time, we will lend our expertise and help at every turn.
Absolutely 100% of all funds raised will be donated directly to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
Due to Bloomberg's generous underwriting of all our administrative costs we are continuing the implementation of strategic plans to continue targeting many new areas nationwide during 2009. Please browse our website and think of a way you can help.
If you would like more information and guidance in planning a Play For P.I.N.K. event please call Stephanie, Director of Play For P.I.N.K., at The Breast Cancer Research Foundation at 646-497-2605 or e-mail her at
coordinator@playforpink.org.
Over 200,000 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer this year. We must do our part to raise awareness and funds for research. Please join our P.I.N.K. family, and tell a friend about us. Together, we can make a difference. We will find prevention and a cure in our lifetime.
Warm regards,
Laura Lassman
Founder & President
