Featured Charity – In The Pink Cancer Early Detection and Education Program

In The Pink Cancer Early Detection and Education Program at St. Michael’s Medical Center in Newark provides education, outreach, screening, and treatment to the underserved population in Essex County. Our primary objective is to increase the proportion of age-appropriate men and women who are screened for breast, cervical, colorectal and prostate cancer by:

Providing free screening and follow-up services to uninsured and underinsured men and women.
Reaching out to engage high-risk men and women for screening services.
Educating the public about the importance of cancer screening.
Increase knowledge of cancer screening protocol among health professionals.
Providing comprehensive navigation/ case management services.

In October 2008, Parents Who Rock’s Goddess Rock concert raised $1,380.00 for In the Pink. Your generosity lends to greater possibilities for more women to be screened and get treatment for breast cancer. Thank You.
