A Night We Will Never Forget
Even now, there are moments from the Pretty in Pink Warrior Coronation Gala that are hard to put into words.
Because what took place that evening was more than a program—it was a shift.
From the first step of the Coronation to the final moments of the Warrior Stroll, the room held something deeper than celebration. It held truth, courage, and transformation unfolding in real time.
Women and men gathered—not just as guests, but as a community witnessing strength and standing in support of something greater.
And in that space, something powerful happened.
Not just for those on stage—but for everyone in the room.

More Than a Gala
Pretty in Pink is not defined by a single night.
It is defined by the women who rise—and the community that rises with them.
Rooted in sisterhood. Supported by community. Built on becoming.
Service Spotlight:
Big Sister & Little Sister Mentorship Program
The connections formed on that stage don’t end there.
They continue through our Big Sister & Little Sister Mentorship Program—where support becomes relationship, and relationship becomes sisterhood.
What It Means to Be a Little Sister
A Little Sister is a woman currently navigating cancer or life after diagnosis—facing not only physical challenges, but emotional, mental, and personal shifts that often go unseen.
Through this program, she is matched with someone who understands.
Someone who listens without needing explanation.
Someone who shows up without being asked twice.
Someone who reminds her that she is still whole.
The Role of a Big Sister
A Big Sister is more than a mentor—she is a guide, an advocate, and a consistent presence.
Often having walked a similar path, Big Sisters provide:
Emotional support
Encouragement through difficult moments
Real-life insight and shared experience
A steady reminder that healing is possible
This is not about having all the answers.
It’s about being there.
More Than Support—It’s Sisterhood
What begins as a match often becomes something much deeper.
Conversations turn into bonds.
Moments turn into milestones.
And over time, a network of women emerges—connected not just by experience, but by strength, understanding, and care.
Why It Matters
Cancer can be isolating.
But it doesn’t have to be.
Through the Big Sister & Little Sister Mentorship Program, women are reminded that they are not alone, that their voice matters, and that there is a community ready to stand with them—every step of the way.
Get Involved
Whether you are seeking support or feel called to give it, there is a place for you here.
Become a Little Sister
Volunteer as a Big Sister
Support the program
Because no one should have to walk this journey alone.
