2nd Annual Hats and Dresses Tea for Pink Party

In the heart of our community lies a beacon of hope, born from the unwavering love and determination of one woman. Founded by Brandy Sims, the Elizabeth House Foundation stands as a tribute to her late mother, Ruth “Elizabeth” Sims, whose courageous battle with breast cancer ignited a passion for change.

Ruth’s journey was one of resilience and grace. Diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer in 2003, she faced her diagnosis with unwavering courage and fought valiantly for five years. Her tenacity, her spirit and her hope left an indelible mark on those who knew her. Her daughter, Brandy, found inspiration in her mother’s strength, vowing to carry on her legacy of advocacy and awareness.

Driven by her mother’s memory and fueled by the belief that early detection could have prolonged her mother’s life, Brandy embarked on a mission to spread the importance of early breast detection. Thus, the Elizabeth House Foundation was born, a beacon of light in the fight against breast cancer.

Central to our mission is the belief that every woman deserves access to life-saving mammograms. We believe that through early detection and intervention, we can change the course of this deadly disease. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our upcoming event, the 2nd Annual Hats and Dresses Tea for Pink Party.

This elegant event celebrates life, love and the power of community. It’s a day where guests can indulge in delicious teas, showcase their unique style and come together in support of a vital cause. Through the generosity of our supporters, we aim to fund 240 mammograms this year, providing essential care to those who need it most.

Join us on March 23rd, 2024 from 11:00 am – 2:00 pm at the Eastway Regional Recreation Center in Charlotte, NC, and be part of something truly extraordinary.

As we prepare for this momentous event, we reflect on the journey that brought us here. We are grateful for the opportunity to honor Ruth’s memory and to continue her legacy of hope. Together, we can transform fear into empowerment, darkness into light and uncertainty into hope.
