Our Impact: 2025 Charity Partner
This year, The Pink Event is proud to support For 3 Sisters, a Maryland-based nonprofit on a mission to raise awareness and improve the quality of life for those impacted by breast cancer.
From community education to direct support services, For 3 Sisters brings hope, advocacy, and compassion to every life they touch.
Together, we’re celebrating strength and standing with survivors, fighters, and their families.
Where Empowerment Meets Celebration
Founded by Tamika Josephs-Smith, The Pink Event began as a vision to celebrate women who build, create, and inspire. What started as a small gathering has grown into a signature VIP experience uniting community, creativity, and empowerment — all in support of meaningful causes.
Celebrating women. Connecting community. Empowering impact.
Celebrate. Connect. Empower.
The Pink Event is a powerful, all-inclusive, celebration of women offering a VIP experience that blends inspiration, connection, and support for small businesses, musicians, and charitable causes.
The Pink Event 2025 is more than just an event, it’s an experience.
