Transcript

My name is Miranda McKeon. I'm a creator, a survivor, and a podcaster. And this October, I'm Park's philanthropic marketing advisor for their second collaboration with Paincade, which is an organization that helps with with financial support for breast cancer patients and survivors. With this exclusive collection, PARC is donating 27% of proceeds to Pink Aid and last year we raised over a $150,000 no this year the goal is even bigger. I was 19 when I was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer and I had no family history, which was insane. And since then I found a ton of purpose in not only sharing my own story better platforming voices of patients, doctors, philanthropists, entrepreneurs. And, when I was going through the toughest of times it was really helpful for me to hear stories from other people who had gone through it. No, today as part of this collection we're also gonna hear stories from Victoria Glass and Victoria Price. Breast cancer has impacted all of us in some way, shape, or form, and we're forever grateful for your support. Compassion until they're secure. Secure.
