We Turned Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness
About 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer over the course of her lifetime, and over 85% of those women have no family history. We were so pleased to raise awareness for the 2.8 million women in the US with a history of breast cancer, by wearing our pink and hiking the popular "Dish" in the hills near Stanford University. Our walk was inspired by our friends at Poised who organize the walk annually, but this year our calendar was full on their hike date, October 27th. So, in true ChAngels style, we walked on our own so we could still participate. We were able to donate $200 for the Sisterhood of the Traveling Scarves, to purchase scarves for cancer patients who have lost their hair during treatment.
