Pine2Pink raises $117,000 with help community in 2021

Posted

The Pine2Pink Foundation, an experience-based, community-driven nonprofit dedicated to local breast cancer patients, has concluded its largest fundraising season since its inception in 2018.
Through the support of local businesses and community members from participating towns including Doylestown, Newtown, Carversville, Peddler’s Village, Perkasie, New Hope and Thompsonville (Thompson car dealerships) the nonprofit raised $117,000 to benefit local breast cancer patients across Bucks County.
The list of Bucks County-based beneficiaries has steadily grown throughout the years, and in 2021 included: Grandview Hospital, Fox Chase Cancer Center Buckingham, Doylestown Health, Kin Wellness and Support Center and Gilda’s Club, in honor of local resident and cancer fighter Kim Hagerich.
Joining Pine2Pink was nearly 100 business partners spanning across Bucks County and 49 sponsors, led by this year’s Title Sponsor, Allied Mortgage Group.
“When Pine2Pink was first conceived, we identified the tipping point to be when towns pursued us and brought Pine2Pink to their community to help their local breast cancer patients,” said Keith Fenimore, founder and executive director of Pine2Pink. “This milestone was realized in 2021 when Newtown brought Pine2Pink to historic State Street and raised nearly $10,000 for the nonprofit. We are elated to be embraced by six towns across Bucks County. As our footprint expands, so too does our ability to help more people, which is our core focus and why we exist.”

As it looks toward 2022, Pine2Pink will continue to thoughtfully expand across Bucks County. It has begun conversations to expand into Yardley and Quakertown. In an effort to provide greater exposure for local business partners and allow the users to more easily find Pine2Pink special deals throughout Bucks County, it will add new technology to the existing Pine2Pink scavenger hunt app.
To date Pine2Pink has started and funded nine programs, ranging from cold-capping to out-of-pocket expense relief, integrative services through Unite For Her, patient food delivery, comfort bags for newly diagnosed patients, treatment transportation and the purchase of new state-of-the-art infusion chairs.
