Outlets at Orange: Mission Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and The Outlets at Orange joins Susan G. Komen  with the fight against breast cancer with "Mission Pink®". Through various fundraising initiatives, Simon Mall will support Susan G. Komen along with the help of generous customers to guarantee a contribution of at least $250,000. Monies raised helps fund mammograms, outreach and education programs and fuel life-saving research.

You'll see the Guest Services booth turn pink with pink accessories to honor National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Other planned activities include:

• Message of Strength: Provides an opportunity for survivors, supporters and their families to visually articulate what gives them strength during their fight with breast cancer
• Wall of Strength: For a $1 donation, survivors, families and / or friends write their message of strength on a laminated “brick”, are encouraged to take a picture and post their picture on our Wall of Strength and share via social media. 
• Voucher Program: $10 voucher cards, available at Guest Services, will offer 25 percent off one item at all participating retailers. 100% of these proceeds will benefit Komen.
• Local Programming: Visit the AMC Court to see the pink light display and the Messages of Strength featured on the Walls of Strength. Festive pink flowers and pink lighting will illuminate AMC Court to show The Outlet’s at Orange’s support of Susan G. Komen and Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
• Surprise and Delight: Generate awareness of Susan G. Komen’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month by surprising randomly selected shoppers with ‘Mission Pink’ treats as they shop. 

“We are delighted to be working with the dedicated people at Simon,” said Dr. Judy Salerno, Komen President and CEO. “With one case of breast cancer diagnosed every two minutes in the U.S., programs like Simon’s ‘Mission Pink’ play a key role in bringing our mission to people in communities across the country. The support of Simon and their customers will help us fund research, provide support to women, men and families suffering from breast cancer, and move toward a world with no breast cancer.”


Breast Cancer affects everyone whether it be directly, a loved one is fighting it, or we know someone going through it. Here's where some of the donations will go:

• $125 will provide a mammogram for an uninsured local woman. 
• $75 can cover the medical co-pay for an uninsured woman. 
• $50 buys a week of groceries for a woman in treatment and her two children. 
• $25 gives transportation vouchers to and from chemo appointments.
