About Pretty in Pink
In 2004, Dr. Lisa Tolnitch, a breast cancer surgeon in Raleigh, had a patient who was diagnosed with breast cancer but did not return for a follow-up appointment because she had no health insurance. Dr. Tolnitch realized something needed to be done, so she founded Pretty in Pink Foundation with the support of local medical professionals. What began with assisting ten women in Wake County has evolved into helping thousands of women and men throughout North Carolina.
