Story

Greetings! And many thanks for taking the time to learn more about Dancing with the Stars benefit for the Pink House and Carolinas Breast Friends. I am thrilled and honored to be a member of the 2021 class, and am grateful to represent the legacy and memory of my mother, Norma Hearne Cowell. She, along with too many of her friends,  have faced and fought breast cancer and its often devastating physical and emotional impact. And without doubt, it was their shared experience of friendship, community, and true understanding that brought Momma the most comfort. It is for this reason that this event offers an exceptional opportunity to celebrate her exceptional life and spirit.  The Pink House and Carolinas Breast Friends organizations are dedicated to providing those touched by this disease a place where they too can find their own community of comradery and  kinship.  I have no doubt Momma would be thrilled to be serving as a catalyst to recognize and benefit an environment that offers fellowship and healing to others in similar situations. I will do my very best to represent her well. She did love to dance.

Many, many thanks for your consideration and generosity. It does make all the difference.

About the charity

Carolina Breast Friends (CBF) provides support and services to people from all walks of life who are affected by breast cancer. Recognizing the power of engaging with people "who have been where you are going," CBF offers what no one else in Charlotte does: connection and mentoring among breast cancer Survivors. Because until there's a cure, there's care. Carolina Breast Friends operates from the Pink House, a place of serenity and support where all breast cancer Survivors are welcome and supported wherever they are in their journey. All of the programs are completely free, so CBF relies on donations and volunteerism to support its mission and work. Carolina Breast Friends is a 501c(3) nonprofit organization. www.carolinabreastfriends.org
