2025 Run Jen Run 5K for Go Jen Go Foundation

March 08, 2025, Run Jen Run 5K, Charlotte, NC: On behalf of Breast Cancer Hub (BCH), I immensely thank Carrie Griffin, Joe Pagani, Susan Sears, Amy Hastings, and the team of GoJenGo for inviting BCH to share our educational resources and Patient Care Package. We are so thankful to the GJG Foundation for all the great work they are executing in NC. It is always a beautiful feeling meeting Aarti Sengupta from our BCH Support family; she is so inspiring and so proud of Aarti for her participation in the Run!

The Breast Cancer Fighters we met, we felt so blessed to be able to give our BCH patient care package. Our bundle contains Breast Cancer Surgery (also applicable for other cancers), heart-shaped pillow with a pocket to insert cold or hot pack providing comfort and healing, specialized Chemo port Seat Belt pillows to wear in the Car while seated, and Soft Hats for irritated scalp from chemo, extremely helpful for patients. We also provided The pink bag to each visitor that carried the BCH 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.

Thank you, Christen (Pink Ribbon Gals), and Marissa Date, for stopping by! Thank you, Eeshan Reddy and Vivaan Eleti, BCH youth ambassadors, for volunteering.

With gratitude,

Dr Lopamudra Das Roy, on behalf of BCH Family
