"It was amazing to see a community come together to join the fight against breast cancer in honor of friends, family and co-workers," says Mike Birdwell, Fine Line Pacific Vice President of Sales & Marketing. "Fine Line Pacific was proud to be a part of an event that spreads hope for the future."
Fine Line Pacific and Kitchen Plus joined "Team Michelle" with Michelle Millman, news reporter and anchor for KIRO 7. Millman, currently battling breast cancer, is a close friend of Mike Birdwell.
Seattle streets were filled with pink, including teams in pink ballet tutus, dogs with pink boas around their necks and cheerleaders along the route.
