We Need Your Help to Support our Mission!
Personal support and opportunities for fitness are important components of healing and thriving. We seek your support to help defray the costs of putting the "Pinks" on the Willamette River for weekly exercise and for our six races for 2011. Our regular practices provide a safe haven and nurturing environment for women dealing with the consequences of breast cancer. Our presence in the Rose Festival and other races demonstrates to crowds on shore that breast cancer survivors can be strong athletes. We want to serve as a beacon of hope for anyone who might one day receive a diagnosis of breast cancer and remember seeing boatloads of women competing, enjoying life, and surviving this disease.
Among the specific costs that need sponsorship each year are race fees ranging from $750 to $1,300 per race, and boat rentals for practices three times weekly from February through November, costing about $4,400.
