Pink Pumps & Bow Ties Gala

Pretty In Pink Foundation’s Pink Pumps & Bow Ties Gala is celebrating a major milestone — 10 years of lifesaving impact, community, and hope.

What began as a small luncheon has grown into one of Pretty In Pink Foundation’s signature fundraising events, bringing together generous sponsors, guests, volunteers, and community partners to help ensure uninsured and under-insured breast cancer patients in North Carolina can access the medical treatment they need.

Last year’s gala was our biggest success yet! This sold-out evening of elegance, generosity, and purpose raised more than $600,000 to support breast cancer patients across North Carolina. Guests enjoyed a beautiful evening at The Pavilion at the Angus Barn, complete with gourmet dining, incredible live and silent auctions, inspiring stories, dancing, and so much more — all in support of Pretty In Pink Foundation’s lifesaving mission.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made the 2025 gala unforgettable. Your support helped create a night of celebration, compassion, and extraordinary impact—that’s truly lifesaving.
