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, 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.

Ricoh’s 6th Annual “Puttin’ on the Pink” Golf Tournament benefiting American Cancer Society

September 17, 2021 by Mike

The 6th Annual “Puttin’ On The Pink” Golf Tournament benefitting the American Cancer Society was held on September 15, 2021 at the Hamilton Mill Golf Club in Dacula, GA. The tournament was presented by Ricoh with funds to support the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer program.

The American Cancer Society saves lives by helping people stay well and get well, by finding cures, and by fighting back against cancer. ACS is working to finish the fight against every cancer in every community. They are the largest private, not-for-profit funder of cancer research in the United States, investing more than $4 billion since 1946. More than 1.5 million lives have been saved in the U.S. in the past two decades.

This year’s golf tournament raised approximately $65,000, bringing the fundraiser’s six year total to nearly $300,000 raised for cancer research!

Thanks to a generous contribution by the Sonesta Gwinnett Place Atlanta Hotel, Business RadioX was on site again this year to broadcast live and conduct interviews with event organizers, corporate sponsors, and golfers. Below are some of those interviews.
