About
Bright Pink’s mission is to help save lives from breast and ovarian cancer by empowering women to know their risk and manage their health proactively. When Bright Pink was founded in 2007, there were virtually no resources available for women with strong genetic or family histories of breast and ovarian cancer who wanted to be proactive about preventing a diagnosis. What started as a website and support network for high-risk women evolved into a national organization focused on meeting young women where they are—online, at their doctor’s office, at school, in their workplace, and in their communities—with the actionable information they need to understand their risk and take appropriate action to reduce their risk. In the 12 years since Bright Pink’s founding, the organization’s efforts have helped to shift the national conversation around breast and ovarian cancer from one focused on awareness and treatment to one focused on action and prevention.
