This years walk dedicated to a Past Pink Angel

The Pink Angels

Welcome to the team of The Pink Angels. We began as a team back in 2005 and never imagined that our journey would take us to where we are today. This will be our fifth year of walking together as a team and our individual stories of why we are here would fill a book!!
This year we are dedicating our walk to Chrissy Clawson Audibert. She lost her battle to breast cancer at the age of 33 in February 2009. Although she had been too sick to join in the walk, she was there for us in Opening and Closing ceremonies and in her participation in many of The Pink Angel Fundraisers. Our hearts go out to her husband of 4 years, Matt, her parents, and her brother and sister-in-law Marcie Clawson.
Our hearts are also broken this year by the sudden death of teammate Tricia Ciccarelli. Words cannot decribe how much she was loved by all of us. She was as beautiful inside as she was on the outside. Tricia will be in our hearts as we partake in this year's walk. We are blessed to have known this beautiful angel as she joined us for the past 3 years. We have truly become one in this quest in finding a cure for breast cancer. All of us have been affected in some way, whether it be ourselves, our Mothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, daughters, grandmothers or friends. Every diagnosis that we hear about is one too many. Too many women and men are still receiving that diagnosis that will change their lives forever. " Everyone deserves a lifetime" We are committed to that goal. We will continue walking no matter how long that takes. To date we have raised $930,000 in four years and have walked in Boston, Cleveland, Philadelphia, San Diego, San Francisco, and Washington DC. This year many of us are walking in Boston as well as Washington. Hopefully we can reach other states. This will be the year that our MILLION dollar goal is met, but that will not be enough!! All are welcome to join our team or support us in any way you can!!
We thank you and our children thank you. We WILL accomplish much together so please be as generous as you can. As a walker, this could be a life altering journey. We would Love to have you on board with us.
