Pink Vail has raised over $880,000 for patient care and survivorship programs at Shaw Cancer Center.
This year’s theme, “Every Cancer Every Color,” was a reminder that all Shaw Cancer Center patients—whether male or female, no matter their cancer diagnosis—have the opportunity to benefit from Pink Vail funds throughout their cancer treatment and into survivorship.
Shaw treats a wide variety of cancers, and as you can see from the photos, participants embraced the theme as a way to commemorate those loved ones who have fought a battle with the disease.
