Together In Pink is a nonprofit organization headquartered in Katy, TX serving women and men who are going through breast cancer treatment.
Together In Pink was created by two cancer survivors who experienced the life changing challenges you are confronted with during the process of therapy. During our journeys, we were cancer visible when we began to outwardly show the effects of treatment. We became vulnerable and we had to learn to accept our limitation and depend on others to assist us. Throughout all the darkness and difficulties, we experienced an unexpected kindness from unknown individuals who made an impact on us. Now cancer free and in remission, we want to be those individuals who make an impact on others. This positive experience encouraged us to start Together In Pink.
Who We Are
Why We Want To Help
We have gone through what many women and men feared and have an insight with what they have to go through, and we are here to help make it a little easier for what they have to conquer. We want to accompany patient during their breast cancer treatment.
We believe in the power of a random act of kindness. We gift bags to patients we may or may not know and a group of young girls from a local organization put the bags together and write a personal message that we place inside the bags. This is our demonstration of love and care. We care about the community of women diagnosed with breast cancer and we are here to support them, so they know they are not alone in this challenging chapter of their lives.
