Seymour Pink, Inc. is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization whose mission is to unite a community in the fight against breast cancer. Through fundraising efforts, our goal is to fund breast cancer research, provide education and to empower and assist breast cancer victims and their families. “Seymour Pink Day” was an idea born from loved ones left behind…family and friends of those who lost their battle with breast cancer. The idea to have our entire community SEE MORE PINK came from the unique advantage that our town’s name is Seymour.
