The Beyond Pink TEAM would like to thank everyone who gave donations of time, money and door prizes in 2008. In 2008 we received over $42,000 in monetary donations. Volunteers gave of their time in support of the Beyond Pink TEAM through the Bowling for Breasts, Pink Ribbon Run and Plant it Pink fundraisers. Fundraisers have also been held by local businesses and athletic teams. We are honored to receive these donations, and feel fortunate that the Cedar Valley is showing their support of men and women who are battling breast cancer. Funds raised by the Beyond Pink TEAM are used towards providing financial assistance to women with breast cancer and their families, advocacy efforts both locally and in Washington DC, Breast Cancer Bears that are provided to women before they have breast cancer surgery, our monthly support group and quarterly events sponsored for young women with cancer. The Beyond Pink TEAM is part of the Cedar Valley Cancer Committee, and is a non-profit organization made possible by the collaborative efforts of many health organizations, businesses and dedicated individuals’ throughout the Cedar Valley. The Beyond Pink TEAM focuses on breast cancer in the Cedar Valley. Going beyond pink ribbons, beyond pink light bulbs, beyond pink trinkets; Beyond Pink, we accomplish our mission by Taking action, Education, Advocating and Making a difference.
