PINK
JAMS! is aptly named combining the promotion of breast
cancer awareness and the arts. PINK JAMS! is a project created by
Christa Floresca, a lifelong Washington, DC area native,
in support of her participation in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer.
On May 1-2, 2010, Christa and thousands
of other men and woman will journey a grueling 40 miles in just 2
days through our nation's capital. Because of the outpouring of support for PINK JAMS!, Christa will be continuing to sponsor events in music, fashion, and entertainment after the 2010 Avon Walk for Breast Cancer.
Find out more about PINK JAMS! events and support this very worthy cause by visiting our Events Calendar!
Net Proceeds from PINK JAMS! events are donated to the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer event series managed by the Avon Foundation. The Avon Foundation supports breast cancer education and awareness; screening and diagnosis; access to treatment; support services; and scientific research into the cause, prevention, treatment, and cure.
You never know which moments will change your life forever…
“Thank
you for your interest in PINK JAMS!
I don’t remember the day I met my friend Jen, although I really wish
I could. I do, however, remember the day I found out that she was diagnosed
with breast cancer while pregnant with her second child. Jen was amazing
– no matter how hard it got, I never saw her lose that infectious laugh,
her fighter spirit, and her never-ending courage.
Jen lost her fight in 2007 and left a husband, two beautiful children, and countless friends and family behind. Jen and this terrible disease have changed my life and I will never just simply write a check again.
Breast cancer doesn't discriminate, and it isn't a sexist disease. An estimated three million woman are living with breast cancer, one million don't know it yet. This year, nearly 2,000 men will also be diagnosed.
I participate in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in honor of my courageous friend, and for the millions of men and woman who are fighting for their lives right now. I hope you’ll join PINK JAMS! to enjoy a fantastic show and support us in our fight against breast cancer.”
My sincerest thanks,
