305 Pink Pack

WE ARE 305 PINK PACK

Mariangel, 38When you hear the words "You have cancer," your life changes in an instant. 305 Pink Pack is here to provide the logistical support to make sure you can get to your care and recover from it.

Recognizing the numerous challenges accompanying a cancer diagnosis, a group of women affected by cancer established the program in 2019 to extend their support to others facing shared experiences. 

Now in its fifth year of operation, 305 Pink Pack remains the sole organization in South Florida that promptly addresses obstacles to care for women with all types of cancers and has provided assistance to nearly 400 women in our community.
