Pink-Link is pleased to announce that it has been chosen as a recipient of a Google Grants award. Tied into the Google AdWords program, the Google grants award will provide Pink-Link with 3 months of free AdWords advertising, up to $10,000 per month. "I am so proud of this award," said Vicki Tashman, founder of Pink-Link. "The service we provide to our members is online, so our marketing plan is heavy with online advertising. This grant fits perfectly into our plan for 2008."  

Pink-Link is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization which provides support to women affected by breast cancer. At www.pink-link.org, a member can search the survivor database and connect with other breast cancer survivors with a similar type of diagnosis. Members can also post questions to the Pink-Link experts in nutrition, physical exercise, holistic health and skin care as well as post questions to other members. Another service that is provided is a personal journal. A member can set up their journal as private, public to members and password protected to keep family and friends informed of treatment updates.  

The Google Grants program is designed to help organizations extend their public service messages to a global audience, in an effort to make a greater impact on the world. "We have over 1600 members across the country and around the world and with this grant, we'll have the ability to reach out even more!" concludes Ms. Tashman. "Thank you Google for helping spread the Pink-Link word."
