October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Colossal is doing its part by presenting the Fab Over 40 Competition in support of the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
In 2023, Colossal raised an over $9 million in support of NBCF. The associated grant, generously presented to NBCF by Colossal’s dedicated partner, DTCare, a 501(3)(c) charity, enabled the foundation to channel resources into critical programs and services, encompassing education, detection, navigation, and inspiration for individuals battling breast cancer and their loved ones. The grant enabled NBCF to provide invaluable assistance, including navigation support for 51,047 patients, breast health education for 16,137 women, 9,771 mammograms, 6,745 HOPE Kits, outreach to 1,721 women through community programs, and more.
Mary Hagen, CEO of Colossal, shared her heartfelt sentiment, stating, “The impact of breast cancer touches lives across the globe, affecting us as mothers, sisters, aunts, cousins, and through our own personal experiences. The driving force behind the Fab Over 40 competition is our unwavering commitment to raising funds for this urgent cause. Moreover, we take immense pride in uniting mature women through this campaign because, as we’ve witnessed over the past two years, they inspire and empower one another, celebrating the remarkable journeys that unfold after reaching the significant milestone of 40 years. Together, we continue to make a profound impact year after year.”
The 2023 Fab Over 40 winner, Gina DeSimone—a licensed child psychologist living her best life at 43, practicing yoga, running marathons, and inspiring others on the daily—was part of a legendary Fab Over 40 competition, through which she and her fellow competitors raised over $9 million dollars for the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
This year’s Fab Over 40 champion will win $40,000, a spa-cation in beautiful Scottsdale, AZ, and a once in a lifetime opportunity to appear on the cover of NewBeauty, along with a 2-page feature in NewBeauty Magazine. Voting in the competition began on October 14, so be sure to cast your votes now. Fab Over 40 is sponsored by TestTube, NewBeauty’s editor-curated subscription box, and BeautyPass, a free membership that provides exclusive offers, free gifts, and access to VIP events for its members.
Colossal is looking forward to another successful Fab Over 40 Competition, aiming to raise an even greater donation for the organization at the completion of the 2024 competition.
