You Are Not Alone

A cancer diagnosis changes everything — for the individual, for families, for colleagues and for friends.

Think Pink Luxembourg exists to ensure that no one faces that journey alone. We connect, inform and mobilise our community so that individuals and families can respond with strength, clarity and support.

If You Have Received a Diagnosis

Every diagnosis is personal. Every response is different.
Our role is not to replace medical care — it is to strengthen the community around you.

Community & Connection

Cancer can be isolating. Community reduces that isolation.

Through our events and activities, we create opportunities to:

  • Connect with others who understand what you are experiencing

  • Engage in positive, constructive activities

  • Be part of a wider movement working toward better outcomes

Participation is always voluntary, always respectful, and always community-led.

Building Resilience

A diagnosis often brings uncertainty. Information and routine can help restore a sense of control. Through its informational resources and its weekly health-promoting activities Think Pink Lux aims to

  • Increase understanding

  • Encourage constructive dialogue

  • Promote healthy, supportive routines

  • Foster a sense of shared purpose

We believe informed and engaged communities are stronger communities.

Supporting Research

Many individuals and families want to respond actively to diagnosis by contributing to progress. Through its Marian Aldred Award, Think Pink Lux allocates funding funds to support fundamental research here in Luxembourg, and to promote the development of next generation of graduate level scientists (M:Sc. or Ph.D.) aimed at:

  • Improving understanding of cancer

  • Advancing treatment approaches

  • Strengthening long-term patient outcomes

By participating in our initiatives, you are helping to shape a future with better answers and better care.

For Families & Friends

When someone close to you receives a diagnosis, you may feel unsure how best to help.

You can:

  • Join community events

  • Support fundraising initiatives

  • Encourage open conversations

  • Help build visible awareness

Your presence matters. Practical support and community solidarity make a difference.

For Organisations & Professionals

Cancer affects workplaces, teams and institutions. Think Pink Lux works with organisations that want to:

  • Support colleagues appropriately and compassionately

  • Increase awareness within their teams

  • Demonstrate meaningful community engagement

  • Align corporate responsibility with real impact

We welcome partnerships that are thoughtful, long-term and values-driven.

Sport & Youth Communities

Sport has the power to unite, to inspire and to educate. Through partnerships, for example within basketball and ice hockey communities, we:

  • Build sustained awareness

  • Encourage youth engagement

  • Foster a culture of support across players, volunteers and families

By embedding awareness within sport, we help ensure that future generations grow up informed, compassionate and proactive.

How You Can Engage

Support is not passive. It is participatory. You could …

  • Take part in our events

  • Volunteer your time and expertise

  • Partner as an organisation

  • Contribute financially

  • Share our message within your community

Every action strengthens the network of support around those affected by cancer.

Our Commitment

Think Pink Luxembourg is committed to …

  • Respectful and inclusive community engagement

  • Long-term impact that strengthens both individuals and institutions

  • Transparency in how funds are raised and allocated

Together, we build a community that responds with solidarity, purpose and action.

Drop In

Think Pink Lux has a new home, on the ground floor of 1 rue Pletzer, in Bertange (opposite Delhaize and HiFI International). The Centre is generally open for drop-ins a couple of times a week, and during the various activities that we run each week. Drop us a message or if you’re passing and we’re open, feel free to walk in for a chat.

Join an activity

Each week Think Pink Lux runs a variety of health related activities, including yoga, breathwork and meditation, strength building and simple social gatherings at the TPL Centre in Bertrange.

Volunteer

Thanks to its growing team of volunteers, Think Pink Lux runs events throughout the year, of course the Race for the Cure and the ING Night Marathon, but many other fund raisers, purely social events, information events and lots and lots of October Rose events. The TPL Board, the Committee and Team give life and heart to our Community.

Partner with Us.

Think Pink Lux welcomes organisations and institutions who wish to engage meaningfully with the issues raised by cancer. Whether through sponsoring an event, building a longer-term partnership, or developing an innovative new collaboration, we are open to values-aligned initiatives that deliver genuine and measurable impact.
