Today, Your Gift Stays Local
Breast cancer does not discriminate. One in eight women and approximately one in 700 or more men will face this diagnosis in their lifetime. In Yolo County, no one should face it alone. Your donation today provides immediate support to neighbors experiencing breast cancer right here at home.

Who We Are
Thriving Pink grew out of a desire to help family, friends and neighbors struggling with a diagnosis of breast cancer, recognizing the difficult physical, emotional and economic impact it had on their daily lives. All services and programs are offered at no cost and are planned and delivered by volunteers, many of whom are breast cancer survivors with a deep understanding of the cancer journey. We educate, empower, and provide support from the initial time of diagnosis and throughout survivorship.
Thriving Pink helps those in Yolo County impacted by breast cancer to thrive through a compassionate network of support and resources in partnership with the community. Our vision is that no one in Yolo County goes through breast cancer alone, whether newly diagnosed or in long-term survivorship.
We appreciate in-kind donations of breast cancer-related books, wearable items helpful to those experiencing cancer, and gift cards for those in need during treatment. We always welcome volunteers to participate in outreach activities, office work, and board and program committees.
We actively invest in outreach to underserved areas of Yolo County and offer programs that are language concordant and culturally sensitive. In 2021 we launched our ProspeROSA program to better serve the Latino community with materials, mentors, and programs for Spanish-speaking residents. We engage a broad cross section of the local community—small businesses, healthcare delivery systems, family supporters, and individuals—in outreach, education, and awareness activities.
