Paint the Town Pink in Manistee

October 2025 | Downtown Manistee, MI

For over a decade, Paint the Town Pink honored individuals affected by cancer and raised funds and awareness for this important cause. We are thrilled to carry on this tradition this year! 

This beloved community event has supported the purchase of 3D digital mammography equipment, a breast biopsy chair, and enhancements to breast health services and education at Munson Healthcare Manistee Hospital.
