Community Update

Tomorrow is the start of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  You are about to see hues of pink at every turn, but what are you doing this October to be BRIGHT pink? Bright Pink is the only national non-profit that focuses specifically on education, early detection and prevention of breast and ovarian cancer while still providing support for women at high risk.  Part of Bright Pink's mission is to reach and educate women who are at risk for developing breast and ovarian cancer simply because they have breasts and ovaries.  
We have exciting news to share!  On Thursday October 17th at 7:00 PM, Bright Pink Cleveland is teaming with Walgreens and Cleveland Clinic Willoughby Hills to provide a one of a kind educational workshop that educates men and women on the basics of breast and ovarian health, provides concrete strategies for living a proactive lifestyle and offers tools to assess your personal risk for these diseases.  Best of all, it does not cost a penny!  The Brighten Up presentation is incredible and I hope you will join us.  Grab a friend or two and join us at this event.  It truly could be lifesaving for you and for them.
