What We Do
making a difference
We set out in 2009 thinking the Ladies Night would be a one off… Today, we cater to a variety of needs…
These include fundraising events, support groups and resources, and scholarships to support young scientists with research.
Fundraising Events
Think Pink Guide
The ThinkPink Guide is intended to answer many of the practical and organisational issues which affect the lives of everyone concerned when there is a diagnosis of cancer. If you would like a copy, please reach out to us through the contact page or email us at info@thinkpinklux.com

Ladies night
The ThinkPink Ladies Night fundraiser in October is a great evening for women to get together to show solidarity, have fun and support a cause.
Support
Coffee and Conversation
Sharing experiences, listening, being there.
A support group provides an opportunity for sharing personal experiences, feelings, coping strategies and information about diseases or treatments.
Think Pink Lux gets women with cancer together to meet others who are in or have been in the same situation.
If you would like to meet up please send your details via the contact page or directly to info@thinkpinklux.com.
Information Sessions
Think Pink Lux aims to raise awareness about cancer, the importance of early detection, screening, signs and symptoms, treatments and care by spreading the word through talks and presentations in organisations, clubs, and at events. We want to make a difference!
If you are interested in our awareness talks and would like a presentation at your organisation or event, please send your details via the contact page or directly to info@thinkpinklux.com.
Marian Aldred Award
Dr Clement Thomas and team Luxembourg Institute of Health
The Marian Aldred Award has been designed to fund education or research into cancers which affect women. The award currently supports the Cytoskeleton and cancer progression group at The Luxembourg Institute of Health led by Dr Clément Thomas. This project explores the mechanisms by which tumor cells acquire an invasive phenotype, migrate out of the primary tumor and establish distant metastases.
