Many events have gone viral this year, thanks to COVID-19. That goes for most fundraisers throughout October’s Breast Cancer Awareness month. So leave your dress in the closet and snuggle up in some warm pajamas for this years “Pink Power” Girls night IN.
The 4th annual event on October 29th will be the first virtual event and it will still include the Survivor toast, often a highlight of their normal girls night out.
After beating cancer, she wanted to do something to give back, so she started the York chapter in 2017. “I think what people appreciate the most about Pink Power is the money we raise every year stays local and helps local breast cancer patients in York, Harrisburg, Lancaster,” DelGrosso Gilliland said proudly.
And she says she’s grateful this year’s funding surprisingly hasn’t been affected by the pandemic. “I really thought that because of COVID- because of businesses suffering, that our sponsorship dollars would decrease this year and the exact opposite happened, so I am so blessed we live in a very generous community and we could not make our mission possible without the support of their sponsors,” DelGrosso Gilliland said.
