2010 Charity Beneficiaries
Breast Cancer Fund
The
2010 Annual Pink Party recognizes that only ten percent of women who have
breast cancer have a genetic history of the disease, and that science
increasingly points to environmental factors in the sharp rise of breast
cancer incidence. For this reason, Pink Party 2009 has chosen to support
the Breast Cancer
Fund, who has adopted the bold mission to eliminate the environmental
causes of the disease, including toxic chemicals and radiation. Through
public education, policy initiatives, outdoor challenges and other innovative
campaigns, the Breast Cancer Fund mobilizes the public to secure the changes
needed to stop this devastating epidemic.
