Empire State Building To Honor Mrs. Evelyn H. Lauder

New York City, Press Releases

World’s Most Famous Office Building to Shine Pink and White in Memory of the Philanthropist

NEW YORK — November 14, 2011– The Empire State Building (ESB) will shine its world-famous tower lights in pink and white tonight to pay tribute to the memory of Evelyn H. Lauder and her courageous work raising awareness in the fight against breast cancer.

In 1993, Mrs. Evelyn H. Lauder founded The Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF). Since that time the BCRF has raised over $350 million for research. In 2000, The Estée Lauder Companies’ Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign began its Global Landmark Illumination Initiative whereby world-famous landmarks around the globe, including the Empire State Building, are illuminated in glowing pink lights during Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October to focus attention and spread awareness about breast cancer, and the message that early detection saves lives.

“The Empire State Building shines our tower lights in pink tonight and until 6 am Tuesday morning in memory of Evelyn H. Lauder,” says Anthony E. Malkin of Malkin Holdings, “a loving wife, mother, and grandmother and a woman who has improved the lives of millions with her advocacy and inspiration in the fight against breast cancer.”
