Susan G. Komen Houston kicked off its 30th anniversary with the inaugural More Than Pink Luncheon. More than 300 supporters celebrated the past, present and future of the breast cancer foundation. The luncheon was chaired by Carrie and Jonathan Brinsden, who lost their sister to breast cancer in 2007. The keynote speaker was Heidi Floyd, who was diagnosed with breast cancer while pregnant with her fourth child and has served as the “voice of the patient” for several organizations including Ford, Google, the U.S. Department of Defense and Susan G. Komen. The luncheon honored the legacy of the late Eileen Campbell, an advocate and former board president of Komen Houston.
