2023 RETREAT DATE:
Apr 30 - May 06

One of the first things you’ll notice when you arrive in Scottsdale is the stirring beauty of our Sonoran Desert. The remarkable clarity of light, exotic cactus blossoms and lush desert landscape create an environment that will leave you inspired. It’s the perfect place to breathe a little deeper, let go of everyday worries, and settle in to an easier pace. That’s when you’re ready for some Scottsdale-style adventure and exploration.  The community in Scottsdale has welcomed Little Pink families with a huge loving embrace.

The staff, volunteers and donors of all of the services deserve a huge Thank You for Pinking my life for a week.
