Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
305 Pink Pack addresses the financial, technological, and language barriers that contribute to disparities in health care that result in Hispanic and Black women disproportionately dying of cancer in our community.
We work closely with the social work departments at the local treatment centers to identify those women at greatest risk of not completing their cancer treatment or experiencing a poorer quality of life during this challenging time.
Our members are provided transportation to treatment, child-care, home and personal care services at no cost, as well as support services in the manner which is most accessible to them in order to enhance the possibility of a positive outcome of treatment. We also facilitate completion of financial assistance applications for members with technological or language barriers, for help with paying basic necessities when they experience reduced income due to treatment.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Increase the length of time our services are available to women so that they may have as much assistance during what can be a very long cancer treatment course.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?

Last updated: 04/04/2024GuideStar partnered with Equity in the Center - an organization that works to shift mindsets, practices, and systems to increase racial equity - to create this section. Learn more
- We review compensation data across the organization (and by staff levels) to identify disparities by race.
- We ask team members to identify racial disparities in their programs and / or portfolios.
- We analyze disaggregated data and root causes of race disparities that impact the organization's programs, portfolios, and the populations served.
- We disaggregate data to adjust programming goals to keep pace with changing needs of the communities we support.
- We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
- We disaggregate data by demographics, including race, in every policy and program measured.
- We have long-term strategic plans and measurable goals for creating a culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
- We use a vetting process to identify vendors and partners that share our commitment to race equity.
- We have a promotion process that anticipates and mitigates implicit and explicit biases about people of color serving in leadership positions.
- We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
- We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
- We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
- We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
