On Tuesday night, the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) returned, in-person to present its 2022 Hot Pink Party at The Glasshouse in New York City. The evening raised a record-breaking $8.5 million to support of BCRF — which was founded in 1993 by Evelyn H. Lauder, and is the largest private funder of breast cancer research in the world — and its global legion of 250 scientists pursuing high-impact, lifesaving breast cancer research.
