Join us for a powerful community gathering as we celebrate the lives touched, the stories shared, and the hope created through the Pink Bow Campaign. This event is more than a moment – it’s about the impact we’re making together.
We’ll come together to honor fighters, survivors, thrivers, and supporters, reflect on real stories of strength, and celebrate a mission rooted in compassion and action.
Together we are making an impact – One pink bow at a time!
As the season of giving and reflection continues, The Pink Bow Campaign thanks you for helping make 2025 a milestone year. This year marked our fourth anniversary and almost 80 neighborhood supporters in and around the Charlotte area.
We are reminded that The Pink Bow Campaign exists today because of the support from the community. Your generosity has helped us to raise funds, support, and awareness for breast cancer patients, survivors, and thrivers.
Your support makes a direct impact to our local community. Donations directly support The Go Jen Go Foundation, MBC Thrivers, MBC Travelers, and the additional programs that keep our mission moving forward.
Thank you for helping The Pink Bow Campaign to support breast cancer patients, survivors, and thrivers. In the last remaining days of 2025, please consider making a gift to help anyone affected by breast cancer.
Please join us on January 22nd for our Celebration Event! More details to come.
October 13 is International Metastatic Breast Cancer Awareness Day. In a month that is already pink, you may wonder why metastatic breast cancer (MBC or stage IV) needs a day of its own. Unlike early stage breast cancer, patients with MBC:
-have breast cancer that has travelled beyond their breast to their bones, lungs, liver and/or brain.
-May have successfully completed treatment for early stage breast cancer.
-Are in active treatment for the remainder of their lives.
-Do not live with “if” their cancer will return, but rather “when.” Cancer becomes resistant to every treatment we currently have. When cancer grows, patients change treatment until there are no more treatments available.
-Are living longer thanks to research but still facing a terminal illness. Breast cancer becomes life threatening when it cannot be controlled in an organ, not the breast.
-Identify as “thrivers” rather than “survivors” as there is no cure.
-Embrace the colors teal (for healing), green (for life) with the pink that is breast cancer. This combines the shared experience of having breast cancer and the uniqueness that is Stage IV.
The Pink Bow Campaign proudly stands with and lifts up MBC Thrivers. We incorporate thriver colors into our bows to show support and give to the MBC Travelers to help them create community.
