Pink Power: The Fight to Punch Out Breast Cancer and Promote Women’s Health
Dr. Heather Brown Orthodontics hosted a “Women’s Wellness and Fitness Day” for Breast Cancer Awareness at the Power Center on Saturday, October 20. This event served as an opportunity to raise funds and honor survivors of breast cancer as well as other types of cancer. With over 200 attendees, they were able to raise $13,200, all of which will be donated to organizations that are leading the way in providing cancer resources and services to women.
This event was made possible by several in-kind sponsors. Other organizations and businesses also showed their support by setting up booths filled with information and giveaways. Attendees were offered complimentary breakfast and a 45-minute workout boot camp lead by renowned fitness instructor Reggie Collier.
Breast cancer survivors were honored with medals, as well as with encouraging words from several prominent women in leadership including Judge Maria Jackson, State Representative Shawn Thierry and a personal phone call from Representative Sheila Jackson Lee.
“This is the work of God and we are just vessels being used to carry out His earthly work,” Dr. Heather Brown said. “Stay tuned for the 2019 Women’s Wellness and Fitness Day!”
