Why We Wear Pink
Breast cancer doesn’t discriminate—it affects both men and women. Early detection is key. Regular mammograms and staying vigilant about breast health can make a world of difference. That’s why we, at The Viable Source are passionately stepping up to confront breast cancer head-on.
As men, we have a unique opportunity to drive change and save lives within our communities.
It’s not just an opportunity;
it’s our responsibility.
By participating in ‘Men Wear Pink,‘ we’re not only raising crucial funds but also shining a powerful light on the path to ending breast cancer for everyone.
Whether you’ve faced this challenge personally, witnessed its impact on someone you care about, or simply crave to be part of a transformative force, this is your opportunity to leave a lasting mark. Join us, and together, we’ll be making an enduring difference in the fight against breast cancer!
Many thanks to our generous Ambassadors for fueling the American Cancer Society’s fight against breast cancer.

Why WE Support the American Cancer Society
Every day, the American Cancer Society is saving more lives from breast cancer than ever before. They’re helping people take steps to reduce their risk of breast cancer or find it early, when it’s easier to treat. They provide free information and services when and where people need it. They fund groundbreaking breast cancer research and they’re working to ensure access to mammograms for women who need them.
Levels of Manly
When we were given the honor of being Ambassadors for the American Cancer Society Men Wear Pink 2024 Campaign, we figured “Why not go big?” and also have some fun with it.
Think of this as a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure donation page. You can make a big donation and get a Limited Edition Really Awesome T-Shirt, you can buy an event ticket to watch an Axe Throwing Competition (Yes. Really!), or buy a few T-shirts for your team to march with Strides. In addition, there are links straight to a donation page hosted by the American Cancer Society for cash donations.
So get out your wallets and show some love.

Wall Of AWESOME
The Wall of Awesome is all the donors who gave $1000 or more for the 2024 campaign!
We could not do this fundraising campaign without your help! Thanks for showing up to help fund cancer research!
Blue OX Axe Throwing
Blue Ox Axe Throwing is a great space to have a fun, new experience with friends. Our (fabulous) team will take your group through a throwing and safety tutorial. Next, your group practices and gets comfortable for about ten minutes. Then the fun begins! The staff will run tournament-style game for the group. If you’re celebrating your team’s hard work, it’s a fun idea to bring a prize for the winner of our ‘Last One Standing’ tournament at the end of the event!
