Raising breast cancer awareness
The Valley Goes Pink is a grassroots, community-wide effort throughout the Lower Naugatuck Valley to create awareness about breast cancer and
the importance of early detection, support The
Hewitt Center for Breast Wellness at Griffin Hospital and showcase partnering organizations.
Throughout
October, Valley towns are invited to host a variety of unique
fundraising events and marketing programs to raise awareness and support
for the cause.
From hosting Pink Parties
in homes, to “pinkifying” businesses with ribbons or lights, or
hosting dress down days and auctions - the possibilities are endless.
