Power of Pink

This October join local businesses and individuals throughout the state as we raise funds for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.


UNC Lineberger is home to one of the nation's premier breast cancer programs. Our exceptional program exemplifies the interdisciplinary team approach, not only in the high quality, compassionate care that women receive at the UNC Breast Center, but also in the program's broad-based, integrated and innovative research that will reduce the burden of breast cancer.


Today, an estimated 3 million women are living with breast cancer, more than ever before! Since the mid-1970s we have made spectacular progress in breast cancer early screening, treatment and prevention. Because we have used research to develop, test, and use new approaches, almost 90% of all women live at least five years following a breast cancer diagnosis.


You can help us continue providing excellent care to women throughout the state of North Carolina and beyond by participating in our virtual fundraiser, Power of Pink.
