Little Pink Houses of Hope was started by St. Mark’s member Jeanine Patten-Coble after she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009. God’s calling was clear and she responded by creating an organization that works tirelessly to reach out to families that are in the middle of the breast cancer crisis. The organization is unique in that it focuses on the entire family and wrapping them in God’s love, as opposed to a patient-only focus. Little Pink conducts local programming in Burlington, NC and is most well-known for its national program for breast cancer family retreats.
