2022 Paint the Town Pink supporting

The 2022 Paint the Town Pink is now underway! Paint the Town Pink is an annual campaign to raise money for cancer research at The Hormel Institute. Paint the Town Pink allows the Institute’s scientists to further their research as well as foster a greater connection with the community.

While the initial focus of Paint the Town Pink was only breast cancer, the answers found through research grants have been able to impact many other cancers as well. Since 2011, Paint the Town Pink has raised more than $2 million to fund cancer research. 15 Paint the Town Pink seed grants have now been distributed to researchers at The Hormel Institute.
