Shades of Pink Foundation’s A Walk at the Zoo
April 29, 2023 @ 7:00 am - 12:00 pm
Celebrating its 18th year of investing in the Southeast Michigan community, Shades of Pink Foundation is hosting its annual family-friendly fundraiser on April 29. SOPF has set an ambitious goal for this event of enlisting the greatest number of Walk participants and most dollars raised in its history. Because of Covid-19, breast cancer screenings and some treatments were delayed. Now more patients are being diagnosed at a more advanced stage of the disease. With the high out-of-pocket costs for those diagnosed with breast cancer, there is significant potential for a newly-diagnosed individual to experience economic stress. That is where SOPF helps with its program that covers daily living expenses for items like mortgage, rent, transportation, utility bills, and childcare. A fun-filled morning is planned that includes entertainment, refreshments, a raffle, vendors, and some surprises! Everyone is encouraged to pre-register before April 24 (when fees go up) and form teams to raise funds, increasing the impact of the event.
