Think pink for women's wellness
The Guild's primary fundraising event, Think Pink for Women’s Wellness is held annually the first week of May. The event features speaker sessions with healthcare experts on a variety of topics, a shopping boutique and an overall day of conversation and camaraderie. Born from the idea that women are the drivers of family healthcare, Think Pink not only raises vital funds for Saint John’s, but honors the women who embrace this role and provides them with the latest information and tools to fulfill it.

On May 8th, 2024, the Irene Dunne Guild hosted the annual Think Pink for Women's Wellness event at the stunning Bel Air Bay Club in Pacific Palisades. This beloved event, known for selling out every year, provided a beautiful opportunity to celebrate mothers, daughters, and friends while also learning about the latest in women's health through informative sessions, shopping at a carefully curated boutique, and indulging in a delicious luncheon.
