mike and tricia's annual pink ribbon week

Mike and Tricia Mornings has teamed up The Hospitals of Providence to host a breast-cancer awareness walk this Friday morning, October 6.

93.1 KISS-FM's Mike and Tricia's annual Pink Ribbon Week campaign serves as a reminder to all women that early detection is the best protection.

Have you gotten your mammogram done this year? 'Nope. It hurts too much.' 'I don't have time.' 'I'm not sure if my insurance covers one.' These are just some of the most common excuses for not getting a mammogram done, and they are all ridiculous. This is your health and your life we are talking about.

Many lives can be saved if the necessary steps to identify breast cancer in its early stages are taken. That’s what Mike and Tricia’s Annual Pink Ribbon Week hopes to make you mindful of the most; that early detection is your best protection.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and this week is Mike and Tricia Mornings Pink Ribbon Week, so you'll hear us talking a lot about early detection being the best protection against breast cancer.  But what if you can't afford the one test that can help detect breast cancer early?
