Run Jen Run 5K for Go Jen Go Foundation
March 09, 2024, Run Jen Run 5K, Charlotte, NC: On behalf of Breast Cancer Hub (BCH), I am immensely thankful to Carrie Griffin, Go Jen Go (GJG) Foundation, for inviting BCH to share our educational resources and Care Package. My heartfelt gratitude and truly appreciate the kind gesture of Amy Hastings for taking the time to meet me to collect all the BCH Pink bags and Care package, before the event, as the pink bags were pre-stuffed into the GJG swag bags given out to the participants.
On behalf of BCH, we are extremely grateful to Joe Pagani, Susan Sears, Carrie Griffin, Amy Hastings, and the team of GoJenGo, for allowing us to share the BCH educational materials and Care Package.
We are so thankful to GJG Foundation, for their patient assistance program in Greater Charlotte area, as I can navigate the Breast Cancer patients reaching out to me from North Carolina, in requirement of Financial Aid since BCH’s mission focuses on Financial Aid for the underprivileged in developing countries.
The pink bag provided by BCH carried the brochure with the QR codes to download the Breast Self Exam cards for Her and Him in 24 languages and one-stop Life-saving Early Detection Cards for other prevalent cancers, and my contact information so that any suspicious case can reach out to me later. The wristband with a combination color of pink representing breast cancer in women, blue representing breast cancer in men, and purple inclusive of all genders and all cancers along with bookmarks with the message of togetherness were also included in the bag. The BCH Patient care package included the post-surgery mastectomy or lumpectomy comfort pillows with a pocket that allows using a cold or hot pack as part of the healing, chemo port seat belt pillows, and soft chemo hats, all handcrafted by BCH volunteers, a gesture of our love and care for the Cancer Thrivers participating in the GJG Run!
With gratitude,
Dr Lopamudra Das Roy, on behalf of BCH Family
