Turning Pink: Saving Women’s Lives is a joint campaign led by Pink Ribbon International, working in close collaboration with India Turns Pink.

This partnership combines:

• Pink Ribbon International’s global leadership, governance, transparency standards, and fundraising expertise
• India Turns Pink’s national reach, cultural insight, community trust, and on-the-ground implementation

Together, they form a unified platform to prevent breast cancer deaths in India through early action, accessible screening, and scientific support.

Breast cancer remains one of the leading health threats to women in India — not because it is untreatable, but because too many women are diagnosed too late.

Turning Pink: Saving Women’s Lives moves beyond awareness and focuses on systemic, measurable change, delivering:

• Prevention education for women and girls
• Accessible early screening across urban and underserved communities
• Support for medical programmes and research improving outcomes for female cancers

The campaign is designed to be national in reach, locally delivered, and globally accountable.
