Fight Like a Girl<br />
5 Breast Cancer Organizations<br />
by TARA MENDANHA<br />
<strong>October</strong> is Breast Cancer Awareness Month<br />
and we’re shining a spotlight on some of the<br />
local organizations spreading knowledge of<br />
the disease and offering support, medical<br />
aid, counseling, and comfort for breast<br />
cancer patients and survivors.<br />
Placer Breast Cancer Foundation works<br />
1 to raise funds to fight breast cancer and<br />
promotes education and outreach<br />
throughout Placer and Sacramento counties.<br />
They do this through individual donations,<br />
sponsored events, community outreach, and<br />
private fundraisers. The foundation (previously<br />
endowment) was formed in 2005 by local<br />
residents and breast cancer survivors, Carol<br />
Garcia (former mayor of Roseville), and Teri<br />
Munger with a goal to raise $1.5 million to endow<br />
a breast cancer chair at UC Davis Comprehensive<br />
Cancer Center. After reaching that goal, they've<br />
continued the fight against breast cancer.<br />
Throughout the month of <strong>October</strong>, the<br />
foundation is conducting a Paint Placer Pink<br />
campaign to raise awareness and promote<br />
education and local resources. This will be<br />
done through special events and fundraisers<br />
at restaurants, exercise classes, and more.<br />
