Media Release: Pink Wig-A-Thon by The Pink Ribbon Wellness Foundation



The Pink Ribbon Wellness (L) Foundation is a non-for-profit organisation that aims and envisions fighting breast cancer by empowering all women with sufficient knowledge and education on breast health care and preventive measures, regular breast screening for early detection of cancer, various treatment options and the available supportive care Towards A Better Life. It is their mission to help breast cancer patients and/or survivor to cope with life after breast cancer diagnosis.

This year, one of their main event is organizing a fundraising activity called the Pink Wig-A-Thon.

It is a unique event in its own right because it is the first 5km walk and 10km run event whereby participants will run or walk while wearing pink wigs. This is the first event of its kind in Malaysia. Participants can choose to either run for 10KM or walk for 5KM – all in a solidarity support for breast cancer awareness and education while donating funds for the Foundation to carry on with its significant work further.

The event is scheduled as such:

Date: 27 September 2015 (Sunday)
Time: 6:00am – 2:00pm (There will be a carnival and a Pink Concert at the venue as well)
Location: Stadium Bukit Jalil
Fee : RM80 (RM65 for cancer survivors)
