Join Team Pink Warrior

Maryann's Pink Warriors was created in memory of our "Pink" Warrior and loving mother, Maryann Green.  Team Pink Warrior holds fundraising events and campaigns throughout the year to support women affected by breast cancer through local nonprofit organization Unite for HER. In the past five years, Maryann's Pink Warriors has raised over $25,000 to support women affected by breast cancer.

Since many of today’s resources did not exist during our mothers fight, it has become our mission to continue to find and bring awareness to women currently affected by breast cancer and to provide support through their journey so they know they are never fighting alone.

Your generous support transforms the lives of women affected by breast cancer.

With your help, Unite for HER will serve over 1,500 women facing breast cancer this year, providing them with educational resources and access to complementary therapies at no cost to the participant. 

Unite for HER meets women in this vulnerable place and welcomes each one into a compassionate and supportive community of practitioners, survivors, and other women in all stages of treatment. Our unique Wellness Program empowers women with breast cancer to try complementary therapies like acupuncture, oncology massage, yoga and meditation, Reiki, exercise, counseling, and nutrition on their path to healing. These resources are life-changing for so many, breathing new life into them and delivering hope. For those living with metastatic disease, Unite for HER promises to be always by her side, providing the services she needs most. 

Help us to reach our goal to fund a Wellness Day by Unite for HER in New Jersey.

At each Unite for HER Wellness Day, breast cancer patients learn about the benefits of complementary therapies and create a personal plan for incorporating these fully-funded services into their treatment and recovery. In a small group setting, trained professionals lead discussions on the uses and benefits of acupuncture, massage, Reiki, yoga, meditation, nutrition, professional counseling (including sexual health), and caregiver support. Attendees receive a personal massage consultation and hands-on experience with yoga and Reiki during the event. Participants enjoy a delicious meal while engaging in an interactive presentation hosted by Unite for HER Nutrition Manager Erin Pellegin RD, LDN, on the healing properties of real foods. In addition to these helpful resources, Unite for HER also provides a wellness passport to participants to cover one year of treatment costs from approved providers (see documents in the left column) for the therapies they feel will best support their everyday health and wellness.
