What wonderful news! Concert promoter Jeff Baker of Undercover Entertainment has AMAZINGLY donated a block of prime tickets to Sister’s Network of Central New Jersey (SNCNJ)!
This is wonderful because 60 women, who are supported by or supporters of SNCNJ can have a moment to relax and take their minds off of the strife of battling this rapacious disease. If even for an evening.
After having donated our event coordination services to their annual “Promenade in Pink” gala for the past two years, we have seemingly “adopted” the group which provides breast cancer outreach, education, child care, medical transportation, housekeeping, early detection and an annual 5k walk for a cure.
They are a Susan G. Komen for the Cure affiliate (which we’ve also supported) and were recently voted the best chapter of Sister’s Network in the country. We’re VERY proud of their herculean achievements and contributions to all women of color whether living with or afflicted by breast cancer. To date, in addition to our other fundraising efforts for the group (see below), we have donated more than $30,000 in billable hours to the creation and management of their gala!
So why is this important and why is this on our blogsite?
Because GLBTI men and women get breast cancer too!
And talking about it leads to prevention!
