Survivors Sought to Take Part in Pink Glove Dance

Hospice of Dayton is seeking breast cancer survivors to participate in their entry for the Pink Glove Dance sponsored by Medline Medical Products.

This will be the first entry for Hospice of Dayton in the charity competition Medline sponsors each year. Medline dedicates a portion of the proceeds from each sale of the Generation Pink® gloves, used exclusively by Hospice of Dayton, to the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF). Since 2005, Medline has committed more than $1.2 million to the NBCF to help fund mammograms for individuals who cannot afford them as well as other educational and prevention resources.

The Hospice of Dayton entry will feature survivors as well as staff and community members, along with a memorial listing of names submitted of those who have died from breast cancer disease. The project will involve filming of brief dance segments which will be combined into a final production for submission. No previous dance experience is required. Previous winners of the Pink Glove Dance can be viewed at http://www.pinkglovedance.com/about/

Breast cancer survivors interested in participating and those who wish to submit names for the memorial listing are invited to contact us for more information by e-mailing mailto:pinkglove@hospiceofdayton.org.
