A Breast Cancer Awareness Event Celebrating Life, Survival & Purpose
4th annual Pynkalycious Breast
Cancer Awareness Event
The Chapman Foundation Inc. and its Official Media Partner SHEEN Magazine united to present the 4th annual Pynkalycious Breast Cancer Awareness Event. The Breast Cancer Awareness Event was held on Saturday, October 8, 2016 at 9:00am at the Nirvana Cultural Center in Fountain Inn, South Carolina. The signature event began with Editor-In-Chief of SHEEN MAGAZINE Sammi Haynes and the Director Cristina Vinansky welcoming all the attendees to the celebratory event. Editorial Assistant Regina Gilmore followed with the occasion and explained how Pynkalycious was birthed. Harmony Fitness & Spa’s Luzda McCollough took to the stage to help everyone get prepared for the 4k walk with purpose, with a high-energy warm-up. Following the 4k, everyone returned inside to enjoy a performance from Fiya Dance Team, select gifts courtesy of the sponsors, various vendors and food. The culminating portion of the event concluded with testimonials from Breast Cancer Survivors and a balloon release in memory of those who
lost their battle to this deadly disease.
In 2008, Editor-In-Chief Sammi Haynes lost his mother to her battle with cancer, impacting his life drastically. SHEEN Magazine is a platform deemed as the voice for the modern day woman, so it was only befitting to use this channel to evoke a consciousness of our health and the value of visiting the doctor.
The event is designed to create awareness, education and support for the constituents in the upstate area. Pynkalycious is a huge celebration of life, survival and purpose of those impacted by breast cancer. According to the research conducted by Susan G. Komen, breast cancer claims a life every 74 seconds. The aggressive disease not only affects the lives of those diagnosed, but it takes a toll on their families as well. For this reason, it was only appropriate for Pynkalycious to be a family affair for the community of Fountain Inn, South Carolina.
