About Krewe de Pink;
Impacted by the effects of breast cancer in one way or another and inspired by breast cancer survivors, this group of people was moved to come together and raise money for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) in 2011. Led by its founder, Gregory Cantrell, these passionate individuals created the unincorporated nonprofit association called the New Orleans Friends of the BCRF and produced the first fundraising event held on the West Bank of New Orleans at Bed and Breakfast on the Point.
The popularity of the event led the group to partner with Hard Rock Café New Orleans where they produced "BreastFest", an event that evolved into three parties in one night. Starting with a VIP party at venues such as the ACME Oyster House or Richard Fisk’s Martini bar, then into into a second line taking to the streets of the French Quarter led by one of New Orleans’ top brass bands. And lastly, continuing at Hard Rock where patrons enjoyed live music, a silent auction, and complimentary food and beverages. It was truly a great time!
During our first five years as an unincorporated nonprofit association, the group raised over $45,000 for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation and hosted two benefit dinners raising over $10,000 for local ladies fighting breast cancer.
