FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Scottsdale, Ariz. - October 4, 2010 - The Arizona Institute for Breast Health (AIBH),
an Arizona breast cancer non-profit, offers a unique way to support the breast cancer cause this October
during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. AIBH is encouraging everyone Valley wide to pay tribute
to someone they know, touched by breast cancer, and recognize them with a Pink Honor Light through
The Pink Light District.
This unique awareness campaign,
The Pink Light District, provides a different way to support the cause and
honor individuals all month long. According to President Wendy Farrelli, "Our supporters nationwide are telling their friends and
loved ones how much they honor them by recognizing each one with a Pink Light." These pink light bulbs are placed on the Canal Bridge,
which links the Scottsdale Waterfront to the Southbridge District in downtown Scottsdale.
"We are getting ready to flip the switch the evening of October 7th to start Breast Cancer Awareness Month with a pink glow," states
Farrelli. With each sponsorship, the donor can designate an Honoree to be recognized as they go through the sponsorship process and a Tribute Card
is immediately emailed to the Honoree on the donor's behalf. The donor receives a tax receipt letter as the donation is 100% tax deductible.
Supporters can sponsor lights throughout the month of October and honorees will continue to be recognized on
The Pink Light District Honor Album on the AIBH website.
With tears in her eyes, Farrelli says, "We all know someone who has been affected by breast cancer.
Sponsor one pink light to shine brightly as a symbol of strength, courage and hope."
