Breast cancer can be overwhelming, but there is strength in faith.
Worship In Pink is a volunteer-driven breast health educational program powered by local faith-based communities. The time, support and creativity of volunteer Worship in Pink Ambassadors like YOU is key to the success of the program!
This program empowers your faith community with knowledge and resources to take an active role in their breast health. Ambassadors create and amplify the conversation about breast health, breast cancer screening, and Susan G. Komen’s services and resources. Worship in Pink also provides the opportunity to honor and celebrate the lives of those impacted by breast cancer.
