Learn More about Our Charity Partner House of Ruth Maryland!

Where does a single mother go to when she has been systemically abused by her partner (whether physically or mentally)? Maybe a relative's home. Maybe a church. 

Or, she could be helped in our region by the House of Ruth Maryland, one of the outstanding charity partners for The Pink Event^® 2016 (March 6, 2016 at the BWI Airport Marriott in Linthicum). 

This women's shelter not only specializes in the dynamics of intimate partner violence but it helps thousands of battered women and their children find the safety and security to start a new chapter in their lives.

We've let you know about our charity partners at The Pink Event^® 2016 (March 6, 2016 at the BWI Airport Marriott in Linthicum), but we'd like to explain a little more about these organizations and why the expo partners with them. 

One group that has been not only a big supporter of The Pink Event but has done wonders in the breast cancer community is For 3 Sisters, Inc.  

This nonprofit group, started by retired Montgomery County firefighter Marshall Moneymaker and his wife Shannon, is committed to raising awareness and improving the quality of life for men and women who are impacted by breast cancer. 

The group's main programs include Road to Resources, Power of ONE, McKenzie's Corner, and the recently launched Men's Caregiver Support Group. 

As part of The Pink Event's commitment to showcasing women-focused causes, the expo will donate 20% of ticket sales, 20% of ad sales, and 100% of net proceeds from our event charity raffles (and other select proceeds) to our charity partners.

He may be the only male speaker at The Pink Event® 2015 (March 8, 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the BWI Airport Marriott in Linthicum) but you don't want to miss hearing from Marshall Moneymaker.

Marshall took a few minutes out of his busy day to explain what he'll be talking about at The Pink Event 2015:

Question: What drew you to speak at The Pink Event?

Answer: I was asked to speak at a previous Pink Event. At that time, I felt my message connected with the audience and people could relate to what I was speaking about. The Pink Event is a great venue to reach our target audience--women--and I welcomed the opportunity to speak again at this year's event!
