Host a small luncheon for friends and family at - High Point Regional ...
February 2021

Dear Friend:

Thank you for your past support of the Pink Ribbon Program at Wake Forest Baptist Health -
High Point Medical Center’s Hayworth Cancer Center.

Though we were unable to be together in person last year, our community showed its love
and support through generous gifts to the Pink Ribbon Program. This year we are excited to
host the 19th Annual Pink Ribbon Luncheon with some creative ways to keep everyone safe.
As a Pink Ribbon Luncheon Sponsor, you will have several options to participate.

•   Host a small luncheon for friends and family at
    your home or office. Sponsors are invited to host
    their family and friends in their home, office or a
    location of their choosing. Lunches will be delivered
    on May 5th and we encourage you and your guests
    to watch our pre-recorded program, featuring Kelly
    Corrigan, while you are gathered together.

•   Host a virtual luncheon for friends and family, with everyone participating from their
    own home. Sponsors are invited to host a virtual luncheon, with everyone participating
    from their own home. Lunches will be delivered on May 5th and you decide when and how
    to distribute them to each of your guests. We will also provide you
    with a link to our pre-recorded program, featuring Kelly Corrigan,
    for you to share.

•   Make a gift and skip lunch. Sponsors are invited to make a gift to
    support the program (and encourage their friends and family to do
    the same) without hosting a luncheon in-person or virtually. Join
    us in solidarity on May 5th by watching the pre-recorded program
    and knowing you’ve supported a deserving cause.

If you have other creative ideas on how to support this year’s Pink
Ribbon Luncheon event, the Foundation Staff and Pink Ribbon Committee
are here to support you and help you make your vision a reality. Please
reach out to us and share your ideas.

Please join us again for our 19th Annual Pink Ribbon Luncheon, on
Wednesday, May 5, 2021, as a Table Hostess! Included is our 2021 Pink
Ribbon Hostess Packet with further information.

About the Pink Ribbon Program
The Pink Ribbon Program enhances the lives of women and men
served by High Point Medical Center’s Hayworth Cancer Center
through knowledge, service and hope by offering support,
education and compassionate care.

Components of the Pink Ribbon Program include:

  •   The Pink Pony Mammogram Program, which provides
      financial support for low income, uninsured women to receive
      funded mammograms and other breast health services.
  •   The Pink Ribbon Comfort Bag, a gift bag designed to bring
      comfort and hope to those newly diagnosed with any type of
      cancer. Thoughtfully designed to support individuals from the
      time of diagnosis to treatment and recovery, the Pink Ribbon
      Bags contain more than 20 comfort and personal care items
      and are distributed at no cost to patients. In 2020, over 325
      Pink Ribbon Bags were distributed to men and women who were
      diagnosed with cancer.
  •   CancerFitt, a 12-week fitness program and support group is
      offered, free of charge to cancer patients, to help fight fatigue
      during treatment.
  •   Educational materials and programming for Hayworth Cancer
      Center staff and patients.

2021 Pink Ribbon Luncheon
                               Featuring Guest Speaker
                              Author and Cancer Survivor

                             Kelly Corrigan

Kelly Corrigan has touched hearts and captured audiences as the author of four consecutive New
York Times bestsellers, including Tell Me More, Glitter and Glue, and The Middle Place, her poignant
personal story of battling breast cancer while caring for her father who was also undergoing cancer
treatment. She has been called “the Poet Laureate of the ordinary” by Huffington Post and “the voice
                          of a generation” by O Magazine and lauded by everyone from Lena Dunham
                          to Imbolo Mbue. Corrigan strikes an unusual balance on stage between David
                          Sedaris-funny and Brene Brown-authentic. Her work with The Nantucket
                          Project leading conversations about what matters most has taken her point of
                          view to new levels. Forever after what she calls “the thing behind the thing,”
                          Corrigan seeks to understand the matters of the world in all their natural
                          complexity.

                         Kelly is known for making audience members feel as though she is speaking
                         directly to them. By connecting through the universal bonds of family,
                         friendships, life journeys and overcoming obstacles and challenges, Kelly
                         inspires others and empowers them to overcome and make the best of any
                         situation or challenge.

Kelly is currently the host of The Nantucket Project, a live event series as well as a podcast. Described
as a combination of the brainy ideas of TED, the satiric, informative wit of The Daily Show and the low-
key, friendly probing of NPR’s Terry Gross, Kelly asks “the smartest people writing today the biggest
questions you can think of” with her wit-laced, conversational style. She is also an accomplished
columnist, appearing in O, The Oprah Winfrey Magazine, Glamour and Good Housekeeping, and a
dedicated volunteer and activist for health care work specifically targeting low-income children.

Constantly noted as one of the best storytellers around, Kelly connects audiences in a very intimate
and empowering way. Described as touching, heartwarming and empathetic, Kelly is just as likely to
be called cool, funny, smart and irresistibly authentic. Her moving words elevate the experiences of
everyday life and uplift our darkest moments with humor, humanity and unforgettable eloquence.

              We are excited to have Kelly Corrigan as our
          featured speaker for the 2021 Pink Ribbon Luncheon!
