20th Annual Connor House Bosom Buddies - 2020

earlier.org - Friends for an Earlier Breast Cancer Test is the only US nonprofit organization focused solely on identifying an earlier biological detection test for breast cancer. Our mission is to identify a biological test that will detect breast cancer at its earliest stages. Since our inception in 1995, earlier.org has awarded over $4.5 million to fund research seed grants at prestigious institutions across the country and around the world.

Connor House is a service and social organization of 160+ girls at Davidson College in Davidson, NC. Connor House is a venue for interaction and companionship for female members of the Davidson College student body. Connor House provides dining, social, service, and community activities for its members, and aims to promote sisterhood through collaborative service and philanthropy to the greater community. 2020 marks our 20th annual Bosom Buddies Gala, which was scheduled to take place on March 14th, 2020. As partners with Earlier.org – Friends for an Earlier Breast Cancer Test, 100% of funds raised go directly to funding research grants in search of an earlier biological test for breast cancer.

This year, we are led by our 2 Service Chairs, and 15 service liaisons, totaling a 17 member service executive board. We are so excited about the work that has been done thus far and what we will accomplish over the 2019-2020 academic year. We held our 1st Annual Think Pink 5K on October 6th, and were so impressed with the over 150 runners and walkers who came and participated, who, along with donors, allowed us to fund the race and raise over $6,000 for earlier.org. We continue to host Think Pink games, where we are able to support Davidson Athletics while raising breast cancer awareness, and run profit shares with restaurants around town.

Connor House takes immense pride in our philanthropy efforts, and we look forward to another successful year! We hope we can rely on the generous support of friends and family of our house to uphold our tradition of outstanding service. Thank you so much for your continued support.
