Four Purchase region partners gathered around our Horses and Hope pink mustang earlier this week in Mayfield, all working for the same cause - breast cancer screening and awareness. We are so thankful for like-minded community partners! Mercy Health - Lourdes Hospital KentuckyCare Graves County Health Department

Good times at our recent "Boo! Scare Away Breast Cancer!" event in Mayfield! We partnered with the Graves County Health Department, KentuckyCare and Kentucky Cancer Program - West and provided free clinical breast exams with Karen Smith, APRN, breast cancer education and resources, and fun giveaways. The event even featured an appearance by the pink “Horses for Hope” Mustang! Even though October is known as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it's important to stay on top of your breast health year-round!
