Komen Pink Social, 2008

Miss Idaho International, Lisa Hamman, thanks Larry Miller of Boise for their generosity in making the Pink Social a hit.

Think Pink Ink promotes breast cancer awareness with items like this t-shirt. The fabulous women who created this company donate 100% of their proceeds to Susan G Komen for the Cure.

Susan G Komen gave out over $340,000 in grants at the Pink Social. Miss Idaho International supports the organizations that dedicate their time to research, education, and support of women in Idaho.

Lisa Hamman stands next to one of the many grantees awarded this year by Susan G Komen for focusing on early screening of breast and cervical cancers.

The CROP Walk is setup by the World Church Organization to help communities overcome poverty. 25% of the proceeds stay in Idaho (Idaho Foodbank) while the rest are sent across the world to countries that are poverty stricken due to the war and financially hard times.
