- Pink Champion Stories -
Dr. Sarkis Meterissian
Surgical oncologist and the Director of the Breast Cancer Clinic has pledged to raise $100,000 for the Breast Cancer Clinic.
All of the donations have benefited the Breast Clinic’s Wellness Program at the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC), which offers every breast cancer patient free access to services —from nutrition advice to counselling— to return to happy, healthy lives following treatment.
Marilena Papadopoulos
Marilena Thank you 2020.movYou always have the opportunity and power to change the world if you are listening effectively and willing to act.
Marilena is cutting and donating her hair with Pink In The City because one of her students at St. Agathe Academy asked her if she would donate her hair to help make a wig for his mom who will be going through breast cancer treatment.
Marilena is a student leadership alumni who answered this call in an incredible way.
Over $9000 raised!! Thank you!
