Going Beyond the Pink

Wilmington Going Beyond the Pink is a nonprofit organization serving Southeastern North Carolina. Our mission is to provide breast health education before, during, and after a cancer diagnosis, and offer much needed resources to our local breast cancer community. Aiming to fill the gaps in the breast cancer care community, GBTP offers innovative workshops appropriate for men and women, teenagers through the elderly, that teach participants how to perform a self-breast exam in a tactile way and identify changes in their breast tissue. We also offer a full curriculum of workshops addressing the wellness needs of women and men who have or have had breast cancer. We provide wigs, mastectomy bras, breast prosthetics, hats, scarves, and other personal care items to those in and after treatment, and we offer a unique financial assistance program that aims to help the average family burdened by the cost of medical treatment for breast cancer. We are a truly comprehensive and unique organization serving a truly local 6-county area.
