Bras Across the Bridge

Breast cancer survivors, their loved ones and the community are invited to join together to increase breast cancer awareness. The crowd will make its way across the bridge as a show of awareness and support for the fight against breast cancer. In addition, we will have an after-party celebration at The Grand Marlin that will include live music, activities, drink specials and a silent auction. Funds raised will benefit the Baptist Health Care Foundation's Mammogram Fund, which provides mammograms to women in our community who are not financially able to afford one on their own and helps raise awareness and support for early detection. The 2018 event raised more than $36,000. Screenings have been provided to 2,021 women. As a result of these screenings, 411 women required additional testing, 47 required biopsies and 18 were diagnosed with breast cancer. Sponsorship opportunities available! This program would not be possible without the generous support of our donors. The bras will be donated to local organizations that help women and girls in need. 8 – 9 a.m. Register at The Grand Marlin 9 a.m. Bras Across the Bridge 9:30 a.m. – noon The Grand Marlin after-party
