Bayhealth thinks pink for breast cancer awareness

Posted

DOVER — Bayhealth has launched its 19th annual Go Pink! breast cancer awareness and fundraising campaign.

Community members can participate by purchasing a specially designed Go Pink! T-shirt for a donation of $20 and by wearing them during the month of October to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Proceeds will be shared with the Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition and used by both organizations to fund breast cancer screenings for underserved populations and help increase breast cancer awareness and education.

“We’ve been fundraising this way for nearly 20 years because it works,” John Shevock, executive director of Bayhealth’s Cancer Institute and senior director of operations, oncology service line, said in a press release.

“Year after year our team members and community members continue to rally around Go Pink! and their support truly saves lives.

“I’m proud of the impact we’ve made to date and look forward to seeing what 2024 brings.”

New this year, the Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition was named the Premier Partner of Bayhealth’s Go Pink! fundraising efforts, which is signified on the back of the T-shirts.

Bayhealth said it is proud to work alongside the coalition as one of the leading breast cancer awareness and support organizations in the state.

T-shirts can be purchased online at Bayhealth.org/Go-Pink or at the Community Pharmacies at Bayhealth Hospital, Kent and Sussex Campuses for cash only while supplies last.
