We have shenanigans planned all weekend long!

Batten Down the Hatches, Oak Island!

You’ll earn 3 big, beautiful medals and we’ll raise about $750,000. Shiver me timbers!
Oh, and we’re doing a pirate theme for our 2023 event in case you couldn’t tell!

Be part of history as Pledge the Pink reclaims the Guinness World Record!
$100 donation = 1 flamingo = 1 mammogram

Our 2023 Goal
7,500 Flamingos
Helps us raise $750,000 in the fight against breast cancer
We have found that we raise more money by simply not requiring fundraising but even though fundraising is not required, most of our registrants and volunteers end up making a donation or fundraising anyway!
If each of our registrants raised $500, we’d reach our $750,000 goal! Make a donation or create your own custom fundraising page if you want, but you’ll get absolutely no pressure from us.
Four ways to be a FlockStar
We have a wee obsession with flamingos, thanks in part to our lovely mascot we call Fancy. So it is only fitting that we refer to our amazing family of registrants and supporters as FlockStars.

Oak Island is kind of like your childhood beach memories. Before high rise condos, before resorts, before towering hotels.
Oak Island has none of that. They do however have thousands of gorgeous beach houses available for us: choose one on the ocean or the intracoastal waterway or along the many creeks and marshy areas.
And from everything we’ve seen, you’ll discover noticeably cheaper prices than our previous locations, to boot.
