Newport Centre and its program sponsor Carepoint Health gathered recently to kick-off Paint the Mall Pink, a community-based grassroots effort taking place in Simon malls across the country featuring educational displays, health fairs, retailer offerings, special events and other activities that promote women’s health.

Shown at the kick-off (from l to r) are: Dr. Mark Spector, CEO and President of Bayonne Medical Center, Jill Daniel, Director of Marketing and Business Development at Newport Centre, Dr. Robbi Kempner, Director of Breast Surgery at the CarePoint Health Breast Center and Emily Fernandez, Director of Marketing for Carepoint Medical Group.

“As an integral part of the community, we want to be a resource for the health issues that affect women and their families,” said Jill Daniel, director of marketing and business development at Newport Centre. “We are honored to launch our program in recognition of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and host a variety of ‘pink-themed’ activities during the month of October.”

Activities and events planned for Paint the Mall Pink at Newport Centre include a Simon Kidgits Club “Think Pink” event of Saturday, October 4 and a Health and Wellness Fair and Fashion Walk of Hope on Saturday, October 18.

In addition, throughout the month of October, Newport Centre’s Ribbon of Hope will be on display in Center Court where everyone is invited to write a message of inspiration, hope or tribute to a breast cancer survivor on a pink paper ribbon and place it on the giant ribbon. Newport Centre retailers will also be offering special discounts and promotions throughout the month. Look for a decal in storefront windows for participating retailers.
