    Heidi Vansevenant, founder and president of Think Pink, turned her personal experience with cancer into a national awareness mission.

    Diagnosed at the age of 38 with thyroid cancer and lymphatic metastases, she found the strength to create Think Pink, the national association for the fight against breast cancer in Belgium. Active in Brussels, Wallonia, and Flanders, Think Pink leads various projects, including sporting initiatives and funding for scientific research.

    In its early days, Think Pink faced challenges in finding affordable office space that met its logistical needs in Brussels. The association organizes numerous events requiring efficient management of materials such as tents, tables, and chairs. The search for an accessible and functional location led Think Pink to EEBIC.

    EEBIC offers the flexibility to start with small office spaces, with the possibility of expanding as the organization grows. This adaptability, combined with easy accessibility, has allowed Think Pink to grow effectively while continuing its mission of raising awareness and supporting people affected by breast cancer.

    In 2024, the collaboration between Think Pink and EEBIC strengthened, with EEBIC officially becoming a corporate partner of the association. This strategic alliance highlights the shared commitment of both organizations to social innovation and community support.

    EEBIC is proud to continue supporting Think Pink in its essential initiatives by providing an environment conducive to growth and positive impact.
