In honor of breast cancer awareness month, 100.3 The Bull (KILT), Hard Rock Café and PODS of Houston have teamed up for the 16th Annual Pinktober concert benefiting The Rose. The event kicks off at 2 p.m. on Sunday, October 25th with performances by multi-award nominated artists, Kelsea Ballerini and CAM.
As the presenting sponsor for PINKTOBER, PODS of Houston has also joined forces with 100.3 The Bull to host the 1st annual Survivors dinner. Throughout the last month, 100.3 THE BULL on air personalities asked listeners to share their stories of survival. 5 lucky winners (+ a guest) were selected to have an exclusive VIP dinner with Kelsea Ballerini and Cam.
Artist Kelsea Ballerini said of the upcoming event and Survivors Dinner, “I really believe in getting involved in great causes like this even as a brand new Artist, and Breast Cancer is something that affects everyone, whether it be someone close to you, or a friend of a friend. I'm so excited to be a part of this night with Cam and KILT to raise awareness and celebrate survivors.”
PODS® of Houston is placing a special PODS® Container, completely wrapped in pink, outside of the Hard Rock Cafe Houston beginning on Friday, October 23, 2015. The PODS® Container will feature breast cancer prevention tips and be a space for survivors and their families to share their stories.
To kick off the event, Hard Rock Cafe Houston will be doing a pink balloon release, where guests will be able to purchase a card and place it inside a balloon for the release. Additional pink products will be available for purchase during the event. All proceeds will benefit The Rose, an organization that helps reduce deaths from breast cancer by providing access to screening, diagnosis and treatment services to any woman regardless of her ability to pay.
Tickets are still available for $15, with 100 percent of the proceeds benefiting The Rose. Purchase tickets at www.Ticketfly.com.
