Breast cancer affects everyone- women and men. But in Atlanta, there are a certain group of men (with a very particular set of skills) leading the charge in the fight! Through Real Men Wear Pink, these distinguished community leaders are determined to raise awareness and critical funds in support of the American Cancer Society’s mission to save more lives than ever before from breast cancer.

Now more than ever, as they take precautions to limit exposure to COVID-19, your support is needed. Cancer patients are among those at high risk of serious illness from an infection because their immune systems are often weakened by cancer and its treatments. In this new era, they are facing unique challenges every day, but their resolve to fight back against breast cancer is still unmatched!

The Power of Pink: Every dollar raised helps the American Cancer Society save lives from breast cancer through early detection and prevention, innovative breast cancer research, and patient support. Thanks to the passion of the Real Men Wear Pink honorees, they’re able to make a tremendous impact on the mission to end breast cancer.
