Nonprofit Organization Management - Erie, Pennsylvania, United States
Linked By Pink is a Non-Profit Organization consisting of Erie, PA and surrounding area women diagnosed with breast cancer. We all understand a diagnosis, as we all have been through one before the age of 45. We understand the roller coaster of emotions, the fears, and the frustrations. We also have found a comfort in one another because we understand better than anyone what we each are feeling and thinking. We have also found humor in the face of this demon, we call breast cancer. It cannot stop us from laughing, loving, and living life to the fullest. A breast cancer diagnosis is a very physical, emotional, and spiritual journey, but you need to know you are not alone. We are here for you; to listen, to connect you to resources, to make you feel that you are in a place where you feel you belong, and to help make you laugh. Laughter is a key role in healing!We hold monthly support meetings for those diagnosed in the Erie, PA area, as well as host various fundraisers throughout the year. The funds we raise are kept in the local Erie area. We have been a financial resource for those diagnosed. We scholorships for seniors who have had a parent that has been diagnosed and a grant for women who are in need of medical assistance. We have also been able to donate directly to other organizations in the area such as the Regional Cancer Center, The John Kanizius Foundation, The American Cancer Society and the Susan G. Komen Foundation, based in Pittsburgh, PA.
