The Pink Pamper – Helping Women in Pittsburgh, PA

Since its inception in 2008, the Pink Pamper has been driven by its mission: To improve the lives and well-being of women impacted by the devastating and life-altering effects of a cancer diagnosis.

How it all got started

An evening that began with the intention of some girlfriends getting together to share good wine and some laughs, evolved into one of the most meaningful moments in our lives. A heartfelt discussion revealed our mutual desire to make a difference in the lives of others, specifically women who had been diagnosed with cancer. Our path became clear – to design a non-profit organization for that very purpose. Soon after that night in 2008, The Pink Pamper was born.

When it comes to cancer there are many expenses that are still not being paid for by insurance. The top priority of the Pink Pamper was to support women with cancer by assisting them with things like prescription copays, healthy organic food, gas for their cars, natural looking prosthetic wigs, Christmas & Hanukkah gifts, food gift cards and so much more. As the list grew, so did the support from The Pink Pamper. The mission since 2008 has always been to improve the lives for women impacted by the devastating and life-altering effects of a cancer diagnosis.

Funds Raised

We are very proud to say that we have raised well over $500.000. This money served many women through our HaLo Fund and Gift Fund. Also, we were able to provide support to many of our non-profit partners. So many of you believed in our mission and vision. We want to say “Thank you” from the bottom of our hearts.

 

As The Pink Pamper Comes to a Close

We have been honored and blessed to be able to serve these women. Unfortunately, life has its challenges. Although, not always cancer, due to lifechanging events of our own, we can no longer keep our mission going. We pray for everyone as they go through their own journey. We also pray that one day the progression of cancer can be eradicated.

God Bless.
