Shades of Pink Foundation

Shades of Pink Foundation’s signature event welcomes survivors, sponsors, and supporters as they walk the Detroit Zoo while raising funds to provide temporary financial assistance for southeast Michigan breast cancer patients undergoing treatment. Celebrating its 20th year in 2025, the Foundation helps patients, and their families navigate the devastating financial cost of a breast cancer diagnosis. Funds provide prompt assistance for daily living expenses such as mortgage/rent, utilities, insurance premiums, transportation, and childcare.
