PORTSMOUTH, Va. (WAVY) – Getting a cancer diagnosis is devastating in many ways. The last thing a patient or their family wants to worry about is money. Paint Pink is a non-profit with a mission to support local cancer patients with financial assistance for things not covered by insurance.

They’ve got an ongoing fundraiser called “Walk a Mile, Save a Smile”. Event planners Theresa Hoskin and Christina Schmidt shared more about Paint Pink’s founder, Kim Keene, and how they’re honoring her legacy. Learn more about the non-profit and upcoming events by visiting their website.
