Welcome to our Pink Veterans team page! I am so glad you’re here! Our team is growing and we now have 40 members! I’m so excited we’re doing this together! You’re doing amazing things and I’m so glad to be in this together! 

Can any of you honestly say you haven’t been impacted by Cancer in some way? We’ve all been touched by cancer- maybe not by having it but we have all had someone we know (whether they told us or not) who has had cancer. Many of us have lost loved ones to it. Some of us even have, or have had it. 

Did you know that Veterans have a much higher cancer rate than those who haven’t served? This has a lot to do with different exposures including airborne and burn pit and many others. 

Even worse- Did you know that Female Veterans are an even higher risk? Until recently there were not many resources for us to get medical care for issues that are military connected, such as reproductive cancers (including Breast cancer). 

As Veterans who is the last person you usually take care of? For me, it’s always been myself. 

It’s time to take care of yourselves  and others by raising awareness and being part of the change to bring positive impact! 

As a member of this team, we are each playing a part in helping Susan G. Komen® in their ONE mission to end breast cancer forever.

The money raised will fund research to discover more effective treatments, as well as vital patient support to help connect people with things like breast cancer screenings, diagnostics, treatment assistance and so much more.

We're stronger together. United as ONE, we can support those who need help today, while fearlessly searching for tomorrow's cures.

Please join us in this fight by sharing and getting participation and donations! Thank you all for your support can’t wait to see you at the More than Pink Walk on 8 June!
