From Breast Cancer Support Services of Berks County
This year marked the 31st anniversary of the Pink Ribbon Week Charity Challenge, and what a celebration it was! The week was filled with fun, community spirit, and incredible generosity — all in support of those affected by breast cancer right here in Berks County.
The festivities included Ladies’ Day, Couples Twilight, Men’s Ham & Eggs Golf Outing with a putting contest, and a silent auction. The challenge teed off with the Ladies Golf & Luncheon on Thursday, Oct. 2, followed by Couples Twilight on Friday, Oct. 3, and wrapped up with Men’s Golf on Sunday, Oct. 5. Throughout the week, the Berkshire Country Club was beautifully Pinked Out with raffles, comfort bag drives, silent auctions, and plenty of prizes!
Breast Cancer Support Services of Berks County is thrilled to share that this year’s events raised more than $85,000 for the organization! Since its inception, the Pink Ribbon Week Charity Challenge has raised an astounding $1,190,000+ to benefit BCSS and everyone in our community impacted by breast cancer.
This event is especially close to the organization’s heart, as BCSS’s founding members were Berkshire Country Club members who believed deeply in supporting local women through their breast cancer journeys.
A heartfelt thank you to The Berkshire Country Club Board of Directors, Members, Management, and Staff for their incredible support.The organization also extends its sincere appreciation to the Pink Ribbon Week Charity Challenge Committee for their tireless efforts: Rebekah Smith (Chair), Carol Wells, Kathleen Blaum, Jamie Denunzio, Sharon Heck, Jenny Van Horn, and Susan Eastham.
Breast Cancer Support Services of Berks County cannot wait to celebrate the 32nd anniversary of this wonderful event in October 2026! With your continued generosity, the legacy of the Pink Ribbon Week Charity Challenge will keep growing — $1,190,000+ raised and counting!
The mission of the Pink Ribbon Week Charity Challenge Committee is to collectively, as a group of the Berkshire Country Club, financially support Breast Cancer Support Services of Berks to provide women, men, and families living with breast cancer the emotional support and hope to see the light the next day.
Breast Cancer Support Services of Berks County is a survivor-driven organization that provides hope, emotional support, education, and resources to every person affected by breast cancer.
