Pink the Park event supports breast cancer survivors, fighters

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

MIDLAND, Texas — October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and one non-profit is working to honor those who are fighting or have survived breast cancer.

Gifts of Hope is hosting "Pink the Park" at 9 a.m. on October 19 at Grafa Park in Midland.

It will be a free event to support those who are suffering or who have suffered through the fight with breast cancer as well as honor those who lost their lives.

"When you're battling cancer, you feel like you're alone, but if you just start asking people and letting them know what you're going through, you'll know the support in our community is really great," said Fatima Castillo, the Executive Director for Gifts of Hope.

"Just like our organization is there for you, there's people who've been through that battle themselves. Our community is really great about making sure everyone knows they're loved and not alone."

If you or someone you know has dealt with breast cancer and is looking for support, this event will be a great opportunity.
