Our Story
Shades of Pink Foundation was established in 2005 following a heartfelt conversation among a breast cancer surgeon, a friend, and a patient. This dialogue revealed the often-overlooked financial strain that breast cancer imposes on patients and their families. The fear of losing a home due to treatment-related costs and daily living expenses led to the creation of SOPF. The annual ‘Walk at the Zoo’ event has become a cornerstone for raising awareness and gathering support, drawing over 1,000 participants each year for a memorable experience.
