Wherever you may be and however you celebrate the holidays with your loved ones, our wishes for a happy and healthy new year for you and your beloveds top the list for the things we want most in 2015.

We have some exciting things to share with you once we ring in the new year, and hope you will join us for what will prove to be a milestone year for our grassroots global breast health organization that with your support, continues to put Daisy Wheels into the hands of girls all over the world.

We'd love for you to join us New York City in February, or Los Angeles in March, at our Pretty In Pink & Women of Strength Awards! Stay tuned to see which celebrities will be celebrating with us...

We are grateful for 2014, and hopeful for all that lies ahead in 2015! Thank you for making it all possible.

"Imagining Abundance" with Kerry Robinson

Informed & Strong
 
We have launched our "Informed & Strong" appeal with a goal of reaching 
One Million Girls in 2015 with Daisy Wheels - and we need YOUR help!
When you get one, you give one! 
 
Daisy Wheel against map

Presenting a Daisy Wheel to newly-diagnosed patients who have daughters or granddaughters who would benefit from breast health education makes a diagnosis in a family a life giving moment as well as a teaching moment.  Daisy Wheels may be purchased for $5 each and come in packages of 25. When you purchase a Daisy Wheel, you are also helping to provide a Daisy Wheel to a girl somewhere in the world who will have FREE breast health education because of YOU!  It's simple..."When you get one, you give one!"
