Donate Now To Help Save Lives From Breast Cancer

Each year, Real Men Wear Pink asks for candidate nominations. Anyone can visit their website (https://secure.acsevents.org/site/SPageServer?pagename=realmen_learn) and nominate a man they know who is committed to help the fight against this harrowing disease that takes around 42,000 lives every year. As a “Real Man,” candidates commit to wearing pink during throughout October, raising awareness for the cause through their social networks, and raising at least $2,500 to help the American Cancer Society. The Real Men Wear Pink campaign has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars since its inception. Their donations have allowed the American Cancer Society to conduct innovative research and assist with patient services, as well as provide education around screenings and risk reduction. Their hope is to attack cancer from every angle—from treatment to prevention, and Real Men Wear Pink is helping them do just that. This year, three surgeons from My Houston Surgeons are participating in the campaign. Dr. Sean Boutros, Dr. Arjuna Kuperan, and Dr. Scott Reis have pledged to raise $2,500 EACH! For Dr. Boutros and Dr. Reis, who are both plastic and reconstructive surgeons, the campaign hits especially close to home. Both surgeons often work with breast cancer survivors, helping them reconstruct their breasts after a mastectomy.
