Pink & Clink: Party with a Purpose Sponsor & Donor Appreciation

Pink & Clink: Party with a Purpose – A Night to Remember

On Thursday, August 7, the Moore Building Ballroom was filled with the sound of laughter, live music, and the clinking of glasses as our community came together for the inaugural Pink & Clink: Party with a Purpose. This elegant evening united friends, neighbors, and generous supporters in raising funds for Kirby Medical Center’s newest addition — a breast coil for our MRI suite. This critical piece of equipment ensures the clearest possible images for early detection and accurate diagnosis of breast conditions.

From the moment guests arrived in their best pink cocktail attire, they were treated to a warm atmosphere, live entertainment, delicious food, incredible auction items, and the knowledge that they were part of something truly meaningful.
