Geaux Pink for Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center in the month of October

Terrebonne General | Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center invites businesses, restaurants, families and YOU to GEAUX PINK during Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October (or anytime!)

One in 8 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime and with your generosity, they can receive the highest level of care and support right here at home. Funds raised through Geaux Pink support local breast cancer patients, free breast cancer screenings, education programs and early detection initiatives.

Being a part of GEAUX PINK is fun and easy. Team up with co-workers, students, family or friends and make a plan to give back. No matter how big or small, long or short, however you give back, you can make a difference right here in our community!
