The Snake
River Stampede is also conducting a public service campaign designed
to inform and educate area women about the need for annual mammograms
and the availability of these services at no cost through the
Tough Enough for Pink Foundation’s Grant Program (based
on eligibility guidelines.)
If you or someone you know is in need please
take advantage of this important program…
it’s free and it saves
lives.
This Program is open to all women of the Treasure
Valley who qualify under the eligibility guidelines set forth
by the Tough Enough For Pink Foundation.
Free screening mammograms will be performed at either St. Luke’s
or Mercy Medical Center.
More details are available
at the hospitals.
The free mammograms under this program will
be available between February 1st and December 31st 2007, or
until funds are exhausted. But you need to make an appointment.
Locations for the Tough Enough for Pink mammograms are St.
Luke’s
Regional Medical Center and Mercy
Medical Center. Find hospital
addresses and contact info here.
