Taking a Shot at Breast Cancer is a 501c3 nonprofit organization founded by Emily & Steven Goudy of Fort Gratiot, MI.  They started the Taking a Shot at Breast Cancer in 2010 after one of Emily’s closest friends shared that her older sister was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer.  This news hit very close to home, as Emily’s sister was the same age and they had also been childhood friends.  At that moment, Emily decided she wanted to do more and brought that news to Steve and the idea for the calendar and human ribbon were born.

​

Over the years they have spend their time raising funds for breast cancer patients in St. Clair County.  Working with the St. Clair County Community Foundation, McLaren Foundation, Lake Huron Foundation, St. John's Ascension Foundation and Hunter Hospitality House to ensure the needs of breast cancer patient are met. 

 

The goal to make "FUN"draising events entertaining and a great time for all.  Our first event was our Human Breast Cancer Ribbon in September of 2009. Since then, we've added a 5K Run & 2 Mile Walk, brought back the Badges & Bras event, and started Pink Tie Gala.
