The 2008 Hershey's Tour de Pink

Congratulations and thank you to all the cyclists, volunteers, corporate sponsors and donors who made this year's ride such a wonderful event. The 4-day ride from Hershey, PA, to New York City was an amazing event from the kickoff at Chocolate World, across the lovely farmland of Pennsylvania and New Jersey to the victorious finish line in New York City.

Read all about this year's ride on our blog and watch the video of our Monday, October 6th appearance on the Fox & Friends television show.

The riders have reached the finish line, but we still have a long way to go in the fight against breast cancer; you can help by sponsoring a rider or donating today.

Hershey's Tour de Pink benefits the Young Survival Coalition, the premier international network of breast cancer survivors and supporters dedicated to the critical concerns and issues unique to young women and breast cancer. Through action, advocacy and awareness, the YSC seeks to educate and influence the medical, research, breast cancer, and legislative communities to address breast cancer in women 40 and under, and to serve as a point of contact for young women living with breast cancer. One-hundred percent of the money riders raise goes to the YSC.
