October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month—time to remember those we have lost, celebrate survivors and vow to carry on the fight. If you or someone you love hasn’t had a breast health check-up or mammogram, this is a great time to take that important step for prevention and early detection.
This year, we’ll be celebrating Tough Enough To Wear Pink Day on October 19. On October 19, we’re challenging all of our fans to show their support for the fight against cancer by painting the world pink. We encourage you, your friends and co-workers to wear pink. Tell us you’re participating in this worldwide event on the Tough Enough To Wear Pink Facebook page, and we’ll send you a reminder.
We’re also celebrating a big milestone. To date, more than $24 million dollars have been raised through Tough Enough To Wear Pink, through rodeos and western events across the country and the generous support of sponsors like Wrangler, Montana Silversmiths, PRCA and Purple Cowboy wines. Our goal is to raise $50 million dollars by the 20th Anniversary of Tough Enough To Wear Pink in 2024.
Throughout October, Tough Enough To Wear Pink will be sharing breast cancer “Survivor Stories” collected over the past few months. We’ll announce our “Survivor Stories” grand prize winner of a trip to the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo and Gold Buckle seats at the end of October. Make sure you’re following the TETWP Facebook Page so you don’t miss an update.
And if you’re feeling like your pink gear needs a little freshening up, we encourage you to visit the Tough Enough Store and stock up on all your favorites in preparation for October.
