Pink Alliance has introduced a new jewelry raffle as an alternative way for the community to contribute to breast cancer care. The organization initiated this effort following the sell-out success of its annual Surviving and Thriving Luncheon.
Why it matters
The raffle ensures that supporters unable to attend the sold-out luncheon still have a way to fund essential medical services. Proceeds directly benefit programs like the THINK PINK Mammogram Program, which provides screening resources for the local area.
The luncheon has raised more than $1.4 million over 23 years, while individual raffle tickets are available for $25 or five tickets for $100. Each mammogram screening is valued at $125 to sponsor.
