Main St. to Hold Newtown Events Supporting Breast Cancer Patients

Main St., a Bucks County nonprofit formerly known as Pine2Pink, has launched its eighth annual breast cancer fundraising campaign. 

The campaign launched on Wednesday, Sept. 24, with events running through October across various communities including Doylestown, New Hope, Yardley, Perkasie, Newtown, Carversville, Dublin, and the Shops at Valley Square in Warrington.

Supported by more than 150 sponsors and partners, including The Thompson Organization and Giovanni's Fine Fashions, the campaign invites individuals from across the region to support its fundraising efforts.

Since its founding in 2017, Main St. has raised more than $700,000 to support local breast cancer patients. The nonprofit funds 11 programs that provide transportation, wigs, meal delivery, mammogram equipment, infusion chairs, and comfort bags. Main St. also collaborates with local health institutions, such as Fox Chase Cancer Center, Doylestown Health, and Trinity Health Mid-Atlantic, to ensure all funds stay within Bucks County.

Throughout October, the nonprofit will host various community events, including fashion shows, yoga sessions, wine dinners, themed walks, an augmented reality scavenger hunt, and community lightings in pink. Events include themed nights such as "Boo for Boobs" at Yardley Tattoo on Oct. 24 and "Night of the Living Deadlift" at Training for Warriors in Doylestown on Oct. 17. View the complete list on the Main St. website.

Supporters can also find detailed information about donation opportunities and activities on the nonprofit's website.

“The impact we are making through the support of our community is humbling and invigorating,” Main St. Founder and Executive Director Keith Fenimore said in a statement shared with NewtownPANow.com. “We'll continue to focus all of our efforts locally and work hard to keep all of our programs funded in an effort to help as many people as possible.”
