Think About Pink

Welcome to Think About Pink. My name is Madison Karpoff and I am currently a senior in high school. For my participation in government class, I have to complete a civic action project for something I feel passionate about. For my project, I made Think About Pink. Think About Pink's mission is to provide links to useful websites which contain a range of information about breast cancer research, treatment, coping, caregiving, and more.
