One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. It is the second most common cancer in women. Men can develop breast cancer too, but it is not as common.

The Pink Pumpkin Party is a community event inviting breast cancer survivors and families to paint and decorate pumpkins. There will also be information available about breast cancer, mammograms and support programs at the Georgia Cancer Center.
