Mobile Screening Units Twitter Updates Shell Employee Donates His Check to Operation Free Christmas Mammogram For one employee who works at a Shell convenience store located in Florida City, Florida he, his wife and daughter all decided that the spirit of Christmas is giving to others and decided that giving his last paycheck from Gateway Shell in Florida City to Pink Campaigns for OPERATION FREE CHRISTMAS MAMMOGRAMS would assist some women with a free mammogram this year. He Said’ “We as a society are constantly giving to family members, charities for the homeless, gifts for the needy children and many children’s hospitals for the children that will not be home for Christmas. He decided to help women whose health is at risk and may not be here for next Christmas.” OPERATION CHRISTMAS FREE MAMMOGRAMS will help women who need a mammogram and whose needs are forgotten as most of us place our own needs above others. He said, "I am a firm believer in helping women today after all it was a woman who gave birth to each of us and nurtured us through our childhoods. There is always a woman there for us when we fall whether she is your mother, wife, or girlfriend and this Christmas we want to make sure that they receive the care that they need in their time of need." Update: December 18, 2009 Today the Shell employee who wishes to remain anonymous donated his entire check to Operation Free Christmas Mammogram. His employer doubled his donation which was a nice surprise. Now we will be able to provide 13 more free mammograms this Christmas. Most of the mammograms will take place after Christmas. One of the local hospitals has also offered to provide 20 free mammograms bringing to a total of 33 free mammograms for Miami-Dade county alone. You can still help with your generous tax deductible donation. Operation Free Christmas Mammograms gets underway December 1st 2009 December 1st, 2009 marks another milestone for Pink Campaigns as we kick off Operation Free Christmas Mammograms. With an estimated 200,000 women nationwide needing mammograms we have our work cut out for us this year. Since we still do not have enough money to buy our Mobile Screening Units for each of the 50 states we must contact local hospitals, clinics and doctors to provide free mammograms. 10-Year-Old Girl Battles Rare Breast Cancer Breast Cancer Case Exceedingly Uncommon; Doctors Warn Media Spotlight Could Lead to Panic For many of the estimated 180,000 women whose doctors will tell them they have breast cancer this year, the diagnosis will no doubt come as a shock. But for the parents of 10-year-old Hannah Powell-Auslam of Fullerton, Calif., who learned in early April that their daughter had breast cancer, the news was particularly hard to swallow. "It should be the furthest thing from your mind," Hannah's mother Carrie Auslam told reporters from KCAL-TV in Los Angeles. "Ten-year-olds don't get breast cancer." For Hannah, the realization that she would have to deal with a disease normally associated with women many times her age was a difficult one to take. "I told my mom, I just wanna be a normal kid," she told reporters. "I want to go back to school, play sports, hang out with my friends. So I started crying."

Pink Campaigns to begin fundraising at local supermarkets and discount stores August 1st Our fundraising table Visit our Shopping page Beginning in August we will be setting up in front of several supermarkets and discount stores to raise funds for Project Free Mammogram. Using this service we will be providing Free Mammograms throughout the U.S. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that has given donations on the streets in South Miami on US 1 and other locations. Later this year we will have a fundraiser to raise more funds for our Mobile Screening Units.

Pink Campaigns to Purchase 50 Mobile Screening Units July 10, 2009 According Mr. McElfresh Pink Campaigns is committed to Project Free Mammograms. Over the next 10 years we will purchase a total of 50 Mobile Mammography Clinics at a cost of $350,000 each to cover the entire United States. Our preliminary studies have proven the need for this program. Currently an estimated 200,000 women across the U.S are uninsured or have no insurance at all. At Pink Campaigns our goal is to provide this service at no cost to the women who need a mammogram. Currently we are paying for the cost at hospitals and clinics for the women who need immediate attention. We have asked for in-kind donations from some hospitals and received a flat no. In any case we still need to raise $100,000 for Florida's first Mobile Screening Unit (MSU). More news to follow. Become a Sponsor/Donor June 29, 2009 Our preliminary estimates have shown that approximately 200,000 women NATIONWIDE are uninsured or underinsured and desperately need a free mammogram, NOW!

So our ad will be pulled after a short period of time and we will rely on word of mouth and Public Service Announcements (PSA's) to get the word out. Help us keep our costs as low as possible by sending this free service to all of your friends. Our current estimates are that over 200,000 (and growing) women across the nation need this service either they have no insurance or are under insured. We also placed the same ad in Local News on Craigslist. Project Free Mammogram Project Free Mammogram is part of Pink Campaigns solution to the cure. By providing free screenings to all women of all ages we can beat this disease before it has a chance to start. Early detection is a major factor in saving thousands of women's lives. Many women that do not have insurance or any means of follow up after being diagnosed can now at least have free mammograms every year. Even if you have insurance you may be limited to one screening annually. Now all walks of life will have an opportunity to know and have peace of mind that they can get a free mammogram at any time.

Free Mammogram Sign up Today Volunteers on the Streets in Miami May 21, 2009 Volunteers are on the streets in Miami and Fort Lauderdale to collect donations for Project Free Mammogram. Project Free Mammogram is a program dedicated to helping women get free breast cancer screenings who could not otherwise afford them. Currently the program is being offered to all women insured or not. It is our belief that early detection is the solution to the cure. If we can detect any lumps, signs or symptoms early we can defeat this disease. With early detection and awareness the likelihood is that we can reduce the number of deaths caused by this disease.	Breast Cancer Awareness in Brazil In Brazil as in most third world countries breast cancer awareness is very low. Estimated reported deaths are as high 40 to 60,000. In Rio de Janeiro alone there was 11,000 reported deaths in 2008. In Brazil many women die of this disease because of poverty and inadequate health care and in many cases their cause of death is unreported or not known. According to the National Cancer Institute in Brazil (INCA), cancer is the second greatest cause of death in Brazil, and it is projected to cause 49,400 (reported) new deaths in 2009. In Brazil and as well as many other third world countries cancer awareness has not had the media attention as it has in the United States. Awareness is still not as actively publicized as it could be. Every time we go to Brazil we are amazed how little women know about breast cancer. We are setting up information centers at the malls and other locations throughout Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, and Brasilia and plan to move on to the rest of Brazil by the end of the year. We have budgeted to do Infomercials on television and newspapers ads. If you would like to help please make your donation using the donation button at the top left of this page.

Mobile Screening Units Phase One of our plan is to purchase four (4) Mobile Screening Units before the end of 2010. These first four Units will be used in each of the different time zones across the United States. Preliminary studies show demand will be extremely high and the demand will determine how many and how fast we can put these vehicles in place. The first of these vehicles is scheduled to be in operation by October of this year (2009). Phase Two of our plan is to purchase one bus for every two states in the USA during the next five to ten years.. Unless demand is extremely high which we anticipate will be, we will have to step up Phase Two. Each of these buses will cost about $350,000.00 each and are eco-friendly (green) units.
