Retreat Director

Lori Bue

Lori is from Wisconsin, where she serves as a Continuous Improvement Manager with a local health system. Her journey with Little Pink Houses of Hope began as a VolunStar at a retreat in Hatteras. From the moment she arrived, Lori felt a profound connection to the mission of the organization and knew she wanted to dedicate her time to supporting fellow breast cancer thrivers and their families. Lori is passionate about providing families with a rejuvenating getaway and witnessing families connect not only within their own units but also with others facing similar challenges fills her heart and soul, giving deep purpose to her own cancer journey.

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina is where cherished memories are made along 60 miles of beautiful coastline.

Savor its warm Southern hospitality, fresh coastal cuisine, and its unique flavor of fun. Cherish these moments together as a family. Enjoy the Myrtle Beach retreat — where Little Pink happiness comes in waves.

The financial environment of not having to pay for anything was a huge stress relief, and that is priceless.
