THE EVENT

PINK-O de MAYO® “the party for a purpose,” is one of South Florida’s most sought-after, chic, modern evenings where philanthropic power players and socially driven tastemakers transform an unforgettable night out into meaningful impact for women facing breast cancer.  Always a sold-out experience, PINK-O de MAYO® is the signature annual event of the PINK-O Charitable Foundation,  and, this year, it proudly drives THE PINK-O MOVEMENT which is focused on proactive risk evaluation, awareness, and early detection for younger generations now confronting the disease, empowering them to understand their risk sooner and take action earlier.

Set at the new CAZAZEN in Southwest Ranches, PINK-O de MAYO® has found their new home for 2026, which perfectly accents its elevated, glam-Tulum vibe; lush, modern, and effortlessly stylish. The space feels like a destination in itself, creating an immersive backdrop where guests become part of a living visual statement of what it means to “party for a purpose”. Throughout the evening, guests explore immersive culinary vignettes featuring extraordinary bites from renowned South Florida chefs, curated as a progressive tasting journey rather than a traditional seated dinner. Premium libations/including craft cocktails, mocktails, boutique wines, and top-tier spirits-are poured by expert mixologists, turning each bar and activation into a social hub where conversations spark, relationships deepen, and generosity flows as freely as the pours.

Every moment channels the power of this philanthropic, socially engaged crowd into direct support for UM SYLVESTER COMPREHENSIVE CANCER CENTER. The evening is dedicated to raising funds for their Breast C.A.R.E. Clinic initiative created for high risk assessment and early detection as well as Psychological Support and Integrative Wellness. Upscale giving is built into the experience, with specially curated bidding opportunities and the PINK-O MERCADO inviting guests to directly fund integrative wellness services and therapies available for patients at UM SYLVESTER Comprehensive Cancer Center. These elevated, one-of-a-kind ways for guests to give let supporters instantly see their generosity powering real change for women battling breast cancer today, those at a higher risk of developing breast cancer, and the rising generation of younger patients now being faced with this.

For Donors, Sponsors, Vendor Sponsors and our In-Kind Partners, PINK-O de MAYO® at CAZAZEN signals a place at the epicenter of South Florida’s philanthropic and social landscape, where influence is intentionally channeled into action. The result is a purely electric vibe-where every introduction and shared moment is layered with purpose.  PINK-O de MAYO® “the party for a purpose” has redefined what a chic, modern, must-attend charity experience looks like and delivers.

THE FOUNDATION

THE PINK-O CHARITABLE FOUNDATION is thrilled to have transitioned from an Annual Event founded in 2021; into a 501(c)(3) in 2024, and now a 365/366 day a year purpose.

THE PINK-O MOVEMENT

Breast cancer isn’t waiting for the “right” age anymore. It’s showing up younger, faster, and with a fierceness that no one saw coming, but it’s here. We have the knowledge. We have the tools. What we don’t have is time to stay silent or let anyone walk into a diagnosis too late. THE PINK-O MOVEMENT is igniting empowerment, knowledge and access to what is needed in this new reality we are living in. Our cause is a part of culture, not just charity. THE PINK-O MOVEMENT is how advocacy and action becomes iconic. JOIN US AS AN ICON IN THIS NEW LIFELINE.

PINK-O. THE MOVEMENT. THE BRAND. THE CAMPAIGN. THE REVOLUTION. THE LIFELINE.

THE CAUSE 

100% of all profits support the PINK-O Movement initiative with UM Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, focused on younger adults in their 20s and 30s at an unprecedented rate of higher risk for breast cancer. The initiative delivers a high-impact, first-of-its-kind awareness campaign; risk assessment, high-risk surveillance, and early detection through UM Sylvester’s Breast C.A.R.E. Clinic, as well as psychological support, integrative wellness, and lifelong survivorship support through UM Sylvester’s Survivorship and Supportive Care Institute.

Other areas of focus will include onco-fertility preservation and guidance, cutting-edge reconstruction options, and sexual health, led by world-renowned experts at UM Sylvester. These efforts create a vital lifeline for a new generation that is now part of the statistics. We are forging a future where younger patients don’t become one and not only survive, but are empowered to fully live, physically, emotionally, and generationally.
