    October is most-commonly associated with the changing of the leaves, comfy sweaters and a night dedicated to jack-o-lanterns and trick-or-treating. For many men and women, however, October means so much more--it represents a month of hope.

    Formally created in 1985, Breast Cancer Awareness Month inspires millions of cancer survivors, family members and friends across the globe to get together to increase awareness and raise funds for the treatment, prevention and cure of breast cancer. With overwhelming support from the local community, Houlihan Lawrence raised $50,000 for the cause in 2011.

    This year our company is sponsoring three major walks in the Hudson Valley. Help us honor the memory of those who lost their lives to breast cancer and support those who have valiantly fought or are fighting the disease--and remember, Think Pink throughout October.

Miles of Hope is a nonprofit charity that raises funds for support services and outreach for for people affected by breast cancer in the Hudson Valley.
