Breast cancer in men is rare, but it does happen. In the U.S., about 1 percent of all breast cancer cases occur in men [American Cancer Society].
Together, WE can make a positive impact in our communities.
The Journey
The C. Wright Pink Ribbon Project 501(c)(3) was developed as a collaborative effort under the Multicultural Developmental Center and Stonewall Missionary Baptist Church, named in honor of a 10 year breast cancer survivor, Catherine A. Wright. The C. Wright Pink Ribbon Project’s aim is to help breast cancer survivors in our local community. The core objectives are to provide access to resources pertinent to overall health, mental, and emotional care.
The Project Funds
Your financial assistance will help provide transportation to and from medical appointments, co-payments, pharmacy expenses, and monetary support to maintain necessary living expenses. Personal support will also be given to breast cancer patients during the diagnosis, treatment, and recovery phase of this devastating illness.
