On the Agenda | Winter 2018

Last year, with your support, The Pink Agenda funded 10,000 hours of breast cancer research! This year, we’re adding new events and growing our community to make an even bigger impact. Check out our exciting updates and all the ways you can join us in 2018!

Research Update

Promising findings on metastatic and triple-negative breast cancer have come from a recently released study supported in part by The Pink Agenda’s Direct Care Grant awarded to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in 2016. We are proud to support the work of talented young researchers and be a part of this encouraging progress! Click here to learn more about the study and the impact of its results.

Leadership News

Last month, The Pink Agenda welcomed Audrey Rogers, Chelsea Steinberg, Alanna Tweedy, and Courtney Wirths to our Board of Directors, along with several new additions to the Leadership Council. To view a full list of The Pink Agenda’s leadership or to learn more about getting involved, click here.

Boston Gala

The Pink Agenda’s Annual Boston Gala will be held on Saturday, April 7 at the Benjamin Franklin Institute of Technology. Join us as we go back to the 80s for a Pretty in Pink-themed evening of raising money – and raising hell – for breast cancer research!

Athletic Initiatives

For the first time, The Pink Agenda will have a team in the 2018 UnitedAirlines NYC Half. Meet the men and women running for TPA on Sunday, March 18, and support their fundraising efforts here!

We are now accepting applications for the 2018 TCS New York City Marathon to be held on Sunday, November 4. Last year’s team raised over $150,000, funding more than 3,000 hours of lifesaving research. For more information and to apply for entry to our 2018 team, click here.
